Can the DNA Engine by Bio-Rad be automated by the KX2 robot?

The DNA Engine thermal cycler from Bio-Rad can be automated using the KX2 robot and software by PAA. PAA seamlessly integrates with the DNA Engine, enabling automated PCR (polymerase chain reaction) workflows. With PAA, the KX2 robot can automate various PCR protocols, including amplification, denaturation, annealing, and extension, with precise temperature control and timing. This integration streamlines laboratory processes, reduces hands-on time, and ensures consistent and reproducible results. Leveraging PAA with the DNA Engine enhances workflow efficiency, scalability, and flexibility, making it an ideal solution for high-throughput PCR applications in research, diagnostics, and other molecular biology fields.
