QIAGEN’s DNA Investigator Chemistry on the Hamilton Microlab STAR™ Liquid Handling Workstation

In theis application note, the successful application of DNA Investigator chemistry for use with the Hamilton Microlab STAR, as part of an improved automated crime stain workflow is described. Data from the analysis of live crime samples demonstrates that a highly efficient workflow can be implemented using this application, enabling a decrease in turnaround time from 7 to 1.5 days and an increase in capacity from 224 to 760 samples per month.
