- Minimum maintenance requirements for maximum productivity
- Purify RNA or DNA from up to 24 samples in 55-85 minutes
- Sample and reagent traceability
Maximum Convenience and Versatility
The RIDA®Xtract 24 has been designed to give laboratories greater flexibility without sacrificing efficiency. Whether processing a single urgent sample or a full batch of 24, the platform uses pre-packaged reagent cartridges and an intuitive workflow to simplify setup and reduce preparation time. Its ability to process varying sample volumes without wasting reagents or consumables makes it a practical solution for laboratories with fluctuating daily workloads. Combined with compatibility across a wide range of specimen types, the system provides the versatility required for routine molecular diagnostic testing.
Uniquely Designed for Better Performance
The RIDA®Xtract 24 combines advanced liquid handling with proven magnetic bead extraction technology to maximise nucleic acid yield and purity. Its uniquely engineered reaction chamber promotes efficient mixing throughout the extraction process, improving lysis, nucleic acid binding and elution while reducing residual magnetic beads and contaminants in the final eluate. The result is consistently purified DNA and RNA that supports reliable downstream PCR performance and helps laboratories maintain high analytical standards across routine testing applications.
True Walk-Away Efficiency
Efficiency is at the core of the RIDA®Xtract 24, enabling laboratories to reduce manual handling while improving workflow consistency. Once samples and reagents have been loaded, the system performs the complete extraction process with minimal user intervention, allowing laboratory staff to focus on other high-value tasks. Integrated sample and reagent traceability, intuitive software and semi-automated processing help standardise workflows, minimise operator variability and deliver reproducible extraction results across every run.
