The FilterPress™ DNA, and RNA Extraction is manufactured by Hudson Robotics, Inc. It is a powerful alternative to vacuum nests, beads and centrifuges for the separation of various materials. It is mainly used in the extraction and purification of DNA, RNA, plasmid and protein as well as solid phase extraction. The upper nest supports a wide range of filter / spinners and SPE columns. Any SBS microplate can be used as a collection plate for nesting and as a waste tank when the nest is empty. The temperature and pressure of the air used to push the fluid through the filter plate or filter column are automatically controlled by the software.
