Agilent 2100 (G2938B) BioAnalyzer Microfluidic DNA Chip Reader for Nucleic Acid and Protein QC

The Agilent 2100 BioAnalyzer (Model G2938B) is a versatile microfluidics-based platform designed for precise sizing, quantification, and quality control of DNA, RNA, proteins, and cells within a single integrated system. It generates high-quality digital data in approximately 30–40 minutes, significantly streamlining workflows compared to traditional gel electrophoresis.

Key features include:

• Automated analysis with minimal sample volume requirements (1 to 4 µL)
• Compatibility with electrophoresis cartridges (not included) for nucleic acid investigations, such as total RNA, large and small DNA fragments, microRNA, and labeled RNA
• Exchangeable cartridges support both electrophoresis and flow cytometry applications, enabling flexible molecular diagnostics and cell analysis
• Widely adopted in biotechnology research fields including molecular diagnostics, gene editing workflows, and synthetic biology applications
• Critical for applications demanding accurate nucleic acid sizing and quality control, essential in bioprocessing, molecular cloning, and biopharmaceutical production pipelines

This device is popular among molecular biology researchers and clinical diagnostic laboratories aiming to replace labor-intensive electrophoresis with rapid, reproducible, and digital microfluidics analysis. The Agilent 2100 BioAnalyzer's integration into biomedical engineering and biotechnology workflows supports cutting-edge research in nucleic acid biology and protein characterization.
