The GlobalFiler Express PCR Amplification Kit and Prep-n-Go Buffer (for buccal swabs) combines the features of our GlobalFiler Express PCR Amplification Kit with the convenience of sample processing using our Prep-n-Go Buffer (for buccal swabs). The GlobalFiler Express kit is the first 6-dye, 24-locus STR kit that enables direct PCR amplification, eliminating the need to perform DNA extraction or purification steps for DNA database and other single-source reference samples. Prep-n-Go Buffer (for buccal swabs) is specifically designed to enable high-quality direct PCR amplification of single source samples collected on untreated paper or buccal swabs.
The GlobalFiler PCR Amplification Kit is the first 6-dye, 24-locus STR kit that combines maximum compatibility with global databasing loci standards, with dramatically reduced amplification time and superior discrimination power, helping to enable forensic DNA labs worldwide to maximize information recovery and improve overall efficiency. The GlobalFiler kit is part of a fully integrated and validated forensic DNA workflow backed by best-in-class global training, service, and support. This kit is optimized for casework samples and is also available in a format containing an internal quality control (IQC) system, helping forensic DNA labs worldwide maximize information recovery and improve overall efficiency. For database and single-source samples, please see our GlobalFiler Express PCR Amplification Kit.
The AutoMate Express Forensic DNA Extraction System is an easy to use, robust bench-top instrument that utilizes the PrepFiler Express and PrepFiler Express BTA chemistries packaged in pre-filled, foil sealed cartridges. We have designed the PrepFiler chemistry specifically to improve the quantity and quality of DNA isolated from forensic samples, thereby increasing the potential to obtain maximum information from downstream STR analysis.
The Applied Biosystems HID NIMBUS Presto System is an easy-to-use, compact instrument that combines the KingFisher Presto Purification System with an industry leading automated liquid handling workstation to precisely purify nucleic acids from lysed samples for use in sensitive downstream analyses such as DNA quantification and STR amplification.
