Innuscreen Introduces PurePrep Benchtop Systems for Automated DNA/RNA extraction

Innuscreen Introduces three innovative benchtop systems for Automated DNA/RNA extraction from low to high throughput. These systems make the extraction of DNA and RNA quick and effective for small to medium-sized laboratories. These models significantly reduce the time spent on manual extraction and increase the efficiency of laboratories involved in DNA or RNA extraction. DNA or RNA extraction can now be done within 45 minutes! Three models are introduced:

  • PurePrep Mini: automated system that can process 1 to 16 samples simultaneously.
  • PurePrep Midi: automated system that can process 1 to 32 samples simultaneously.
  • PurePrep Maxi: automated system that can process 1 to 96 samples simultaneously

Below, we discuss each model in more detail.

PurePrep Mini: Compact Efficiency for Small Labs

Designed for labs where bench space is limited. The PurePrep Mini is the most compact member of the PurePrep Family. With a footprint of just 200 × 260 × 300 mm and a lightweight 7 kg frame. This system delivers powerful nucleic acid purification in a small package.

Capable of processing between 1 and 16 samples per run, the PurePrep Mini is perfect for low-throughput applications that still demand high precision. It utilizes magnetic bead separation technology and includes both modified smart and non-magnetic combs, enabling the extraction of both UHMW and HMW DNA.

What sets the Mini apart is its ability to run single samples without wasting plastic consumables, thanks to its 6-well tube strip format. This makes it a go-to choice for researchers looking to minimize waste and maximize efficiency. Users can program and monitor extractions remotely, using the app.


PurePrep Midi: The Perfect Device for Medium Throughput

Stepping up in capacity and capability, the PurePrep Midi is designed for labs needing to process up to 32 samples simultaneously. Its open system architecture, intuitive touchscreen interface, and fully editable protocols offer both ease of use and flexibility across a wide range of sample matrices.

Despite its increased throughput, the Midi maintains a compact benchtop footprint (400 × 470 × 450 mm) and weighs in at 28 kg. Like all members of the PurePrep Family, it utilizes advanced magnetic bead separation, smart tip combs, and is optimized for UHMW and HMW DNA extractions.

With automated temperature control (accurate to ±1°C), built-in UV sterilization that prevents cross-contamination, and compatibility with the innuPREP extraction kits, the PurePrep Midi ensures consistent, reproducible results with minimal manual intervention.



PurePrep Maxi: Advanced System for High Throughput

For labs processing large volumes of samples daily, the PurePrep Maxi offers unmatched throughput, handling up to 96 samples per run. With dimensions of 560 × 620 × 500 mm and a robust 54 kg frame, this high-capacity system is designed for optimal performance without compromising user-friendliness.

The Maxi streamlines large-scale nucleic acid purification by automating every step of the workflow. It shares the same powerful magnetic bead-based technology and smart tip combs as its smaller counterparts, ensuring high yields of quality RNA/DNA, even from complex or variable matrices.

Fully programmable through its intuitive touchscreen and remote-access mobile app, the PurePrep Maxi is a cornerstone for high-throughput labs that require scalability, reproducibility, and reliability. Built-in features like UV sterilization, precise temperature control, and compatibility with the innuPREP extraction kits further enhance the Maxi’s performance, making it a powerhouse for clinical, research, or food manufacturing.
