Thermo Fisher, A49106, SeqStudio™ Flex Genetic Analyzer 8-Capillary Array

SeqStudio™ Flex Genetic Analyzer 8-Capillary Array is designed for use as the replaceable capillary-separation array for the SeqStudio 8 Flex Genetic Analyzer. This configuration contains eight internally uncoated capillaries assembled in a prealigned frame, with each capillary measuring 50 cm in length. The array supports fragment analysis, Sanger sequencing and protein quality analysis applications performed on the eight-capillary instrument. During operation, samples are electrokinetically injected into the capillaries and separated through the installed polymer matrix by fragment mobility before fluorescence is detected by the analyzer. The built-in frame simplifies installation and keeps the eight capillaries aligned as one consumable assembly rather than requiring individual capillary replacement. The 50 cm length is selected for methods that require this separation path and is distinct from the shorter 36 cm array option available for other workflows. Store the array at 2–8 °C until installation. This consumable is part of the capillary-electrophoresis fluidic path and is used together with compatible polymer, running-buffer containers, sample plates and instrument software to perform routine sequencing and fragment-analysis runs. The preassembled array avoids manual threading or alignment of individual capillaries. When installed with the compatible polymer and buffer system, the eight-capillary format lets the instrument process multiple samples in parallel while preserving a defined 50 cm separation path for the selected analysis method.
