Qiagen Qiacuity dPCR

The QIAcuity Digital PCR System is an innovative and fully integrated platform that offers precise and multiplexed quantification results for various applications, including mutation detection, copy number variation analysis, gene expression studies, gene-editing analysis, pathogen detection, genotyping, and miRNA research. With its scalable format (1-, 4-, and 8-plate instruments) and advanced multiplexing capabilities (up to 5 plex), the QIAcuity Digital PCR System is a versatile solution that can accommodate varying sample throughputs and research needs.

The QIAcuity Digital PCR System is designed to seamlessly integrate a standard dPCR workflow of partitioning, thermocycling, and imaging into a walk-away automated platform with minimal hands-on time. The system uses QIAcuity Nanoplates and Accessories to facilitate sample preparation, partitioning, and imaging. With just three simple steps—pipette and load, run the experiment, and analyze results—the QIAcuity Digital PCR System delivers comprehensive results in approximately 2 hours, making it an efficient and reliable solution for any laboratory.

The QIAcuity Digital PCR System makes absolute quantification accessible and affordable for all laboratories. Its walk-away automation streamlines the entire dPCR workflow into a single instrument, reducing hands-on time and ensuring fast assay setup and quick results. The system is also compatible with existing qPCR assays, eliminating the need for change in plate handling and further simplifying the transition to digital PCR.

The QIAcuity Software Suite provided with the instrument controls one or multiple QIAcuity instruments, allowing users to define digital PCR experiments, assign them to Nanoplates, and transfer them to the instrument. The software also enables data analysis, report creation, and data export for external analysis. With multiple template functionalities, the QIAcuity Software Suite makes repeating plate layouts or plate run parameters easily accessible, transforming the digital PCR experience.

The QIAcuity Digital PCR System offers three scalable formats (1-, 4-, and 8-plate instruments) with advanced multiplexing capabilities (2 or 5 detection channels) for mutation detection, CNV, gene expression, gene-editing analysis, and more. The system seamlessly integrates partitioning, thermocycling, and imaging into a fully automated platform with minimal hands-on time, providing comprehensive results in approximately 2 hours. The system is compatible with QIAcuity Nanoplates and Accessories, and the QIAcuity Software Suite offers easy analysis and data management. The instrument is designed to process up to 384 (96-well) samples in a workday, with throughput ranging from 96 (24-well) to 1248 (96-well) samples, depending on the plate format. With one or two thermocyclers, the QIAcuity Digital PCR System offers flexible sample throughput and easy adaptation of qPCR assays for faster results.
