Product description

16-capillary genetic analyzer for DNA sequencing and fragment analysis with automated polymer delivery and high throughput.

The Applied Biosystems 3130xl Genetic Analyzer is a 16-capillary electrophoresis instrument designed for medium-throughput laboratories requiring high-performance DNA sequencing and fragment analysis. Released in the mid-2000s, this system remains relevant due to its robust design and reliable performance.

Key features include:

Versatile applications: Supports a wide range of sequencing and fragment analysis tasks, including Sanger sequencing, microsatellite analysis, AFLP, LOH, SNP validation, and SNP screening.

Automated polymer delivery: Eliminates manual syringe washing and filling, reducing maintenance time and enhancing user convenience.

High-quality data output: Delivers longer read lengths and higher resolution with shorter run times, improving data quality for sequencing and fragment analysis applications.

Increased productivity: Capable of processing 96- or 384-well plates with its 16-capillary array, boosting laboratory throughput and turnaround times.

This genetic analyzer is widely utilized in fields such as molecular biology, genetics, forensic science, and clinical diagnostics. It is commonly found in university laboratories, biomedical research centres, and clinical environments. The 3130xl continues to be a valuable tool for researchers seeking reliable and efficient genetic analysis solutions.

Why Questpair exists

Lab equipment markets are fragmented. Buyers spend weeks calling distributors, comparing quotes, and verifying supplier reliability. Sellers struggle to reach global research labs.

We built Questpair to fix this. Every supplier on the platform is verified before listing. Every quote you receive comes from a real, vetted seller. AI prepares your case in minutes, then a real specialist takes over.

We're an independent team based in The Netherlands, working with research labs and procurement teams across Europe and worldwide.

Frequently asked questions

How long does laboratory equipment typically last?

With a service contract, ten to fifteen years is normal for most benchtop instruments. Detectors and pumps are the parts that wear first.

Can I get service for older equipment?

Often, yes. Verified suppliers frequently work with service partners converting the instrument. If applicable, we can list servicing options alongside the offer.

Where can I buy parts?

Ask a scientist through the request button. Parts are often available even when the instrument itself is discontinued.

What is the typical lead time for refurbished equipment?

Two to six weeks, depending on refurbishment scope and whether calibration is included.

Does laboratory equipment ship internationally?

We ship to 38 countries. Crating and customs handling are quoted with the instrument.
