Maxwell® FSC System

Product catalog summary
Introduction/Overview
The Maxwell® FSC System is designed for automated nucleic acid extraction from various casework samples, including blood stains, semen stains, and trace DNA samples. It combines preprogrammed purification methods with DNA IQ™ reagents to process up to 16 samples in approximately 30 minutes, enhancing laboratory efficiency and minimizing variability.

Key Features
  • Streamlined Operations: Prefilled reagent cartridges and intuitive touch-screen interface simplify setup and reduce processing time.
  • Sample Versatility: Capable of handling a wide range of challenging casework samples.
  • Space Efficiency: Compact design conserves laboratory bench space.
  • Contamination Prevention: Magnetic particle movement minimizes cross-contamination risks.

DNA Extraction Process
The system uses a magnetic bar assembly to move paramagnetic particles, facilitating nucleic acid binding, washing, and final elution. The process is efficient for downstream applications like quantification and STR analysis.

Reliability and Service
The Maxwell® FSC Instrument is supported by a comprehensive one-year warranty and service options, including fixed-cost service products and factory-trained specialists. Service agreements offer renewable annual support with options for parts, labor, and field support.

Specifications
  • Processing Time: 30 minutes
