Problems solved by technology

At present, the extraction methods commonly used in laboratories have many disadvantages: such as phenol / chloroform extraction method and spin column method, which require multiple centrifuges, have relatively high requirements for external equipment, and are easy to cause sample loss; and the use of organic solvents will also cause environmental pollution. Pollution, endangering the health of the operator; time-consuming and cumbersome extraction steps also reduce the speed of nucleic acid detection
The efficiency of nucleic acid purification depends on the flow rate of the purification reagent, the operation is not flexible, and the simultaneous purification of multiple samples cannot be realized, which does not meet the requirements of automatic control
