NGS library preparation made easy and reliable

The Eppendorf epMotion can automate this pipetting-intensive protocol into a ready-to-run procedure with minimal user-interventions and setup time even for runs with low sample numbers. To minimize programming time and get you up and running quickly, Eppendorf provides pre-optimized and manufacturer-qualified next-generation sequencing reagent kit methods that will result in reproducible preparation of high-quality NGS libraries.

The sequencing results are comparable or better to those from manual preparation. Trust in the Eppendorf epMotion to automate your next-generation sequencing library preparation and eliminate the risk of human pipetting errors, provide reproducible results and increase overall productivity.

Intelligent Tool Selection automatically decides which tools (single or 8-channel) to use for fastest run time – ideal when sample numbers change frequently or are not a multiple-of-8

Get improved results due to unique options that help remove remaining liquid after washing steps more effectively to prevent carryover that could be detrimental to library preps. The email notification option keeps you informed about the status of your library prep run.

Great flexibility for your NGS preparations needs

The Eppendorf vast list of epMotion automated NGS sample prep methods has been qualified by kit manufacturer and customers to deliver sequencing results that are comparable or better to those from manual preparation.

The highly accurate pipetting system combined with unique operating features ensures that the quality of the data generated by the methods meets or most often exceeds the stringent kit manufacturer’s qualification guidelines to give you peace of mind that the epMotion will reproducibly deliver high-quality next-generation sequencing libraries.

Experience how the epMotion performs accurate pipetting and incubation steps in next-generation sequencing protocols. Showing a selected method from the vast number of established protocols, we demonstrate how important but tedious steps, like bead purifications, can be faithfully performed.

All systems go for optimal NGS preparation!

Maintenance and Certification Services

Particular if you have invested in automating a highly sensitive application like next-generation sequencing preparation, you want to keep your instrument and dispensing tools operating at their peak for optimal results. When it comes to maintaining accuracy, precision and reproducibility over the long term, preventive maintenance and certification services such as IQ/OQ and tool calibration are indispensable.

Application Implementation

Our In-Field Automation Specialist are available for comprehensive application training and support during the setup of your own methods, if you are having trouble with a protocol. Eppendorf offers various application support services for epMotion users with low to high throughput experiments.
