MicroPorous Xtraction (MPX) Tips
A revolutionary technology that incorporates a variety of microporous media options for high efficiency sample preparation workflows.
MPX Tips incorporate a component, referred to as a needle support, that houses high-capacity microporous media. This allows for concentration factors in extraction methods that can replace spin columns or magnetic bead workflows. The MPX method facilitates extraction of high-quality genomic DNA from complex biological samples using an automated bind-wash-elute protocol.
• Mixing via aspirate and dispense steps allows for optimization of binding cycles
• High yields greater than 100 ng/µL
• High purity DNA with a 260/280 ratio of 1.76
• PCR Inhibitor free
Technology Advantages
MPX Tips allow for easy aspirate and dispense steps.
Process up to 96 samples from lysate to purified DNA in less than 20 minutes.

Data and Performance
An Agilent 5200 Fragment Analyzer was used to determine the size distribution of the isolated genomic DNA. Over 80% of the isolated DNA was above 20 kb in size.
Direct comparison of average DNA yields from 250 μL of blood with DPX MPX isolation versus the leading bead-based and column based isolation competitor companies.
