March 2010
The QIAsymphony AS from Qiagen has extended the company’s range of high-quality assay and detection solutions. This new module in the QIAsymphony series provides fully automated set up of Qiagen assays and polymerase chain reaction PCR kits and combines its experience in sample and assay technologies on a single platform.

The QIAsymphony AS extends the capabilities of the QIAsymphony SP sample purification system and simplifies routine work processes through the same easy-to-use, intuitive software. For integrated operation, samples processed on the QIAsymphony SP can be transferred automatically to the QIAsymphony AS, which reduces manual handling as well as documentation to free valuable time.       Over the past two decades, Qiagen has evolved from a sample preparation company to one offering complete automated workflow solutions up to detection. It is working constantly to optimise the kits and assays by ensuring reliable analysis and a proven end result that can be used in downstream processes and compared across laboratories worldwide.
