Digilab Hydroshear and HydroShearPlus

Digilab HydroShearPlus DNA shearing system offers the simplest, most reproducible, and most controllable method available for generating random DNA fragments. This software-driven device uses hydrodynamic shearing forces to fragment DNA strands.

Key features

• Extremely tight distribution of similar sized sample fragments. HydroShearPlus can be calibrated to produce a distribution centred on 2 kb with 90% of the DNA falling between 1.3 kb – 2.6 kb, ideal for plasmid sequence libraries
• Automated multi-point valve allows for the automation of multiple washes, and eliminates the need to manually operate the sample and wash cycle
• Fragment size: 1 – 9 kb with standard assembly, 650 – 40 kb with custom assemblies
• Sample volume: 40 μl – 500 μl
• Fast analysis time: load, run and wash in 10 minutes
