Kilobaser DNA & RNA Synthesizer
Your fastest way to DNA & RNA
Kilobaser DNA and RNA Synthesizer is developed to provide scientists around the world with independent and limitless access to essential life science tools. Therefore, it is designed as user friendly as possible. The cartridge and chip technology allows even untrained personnel to complete a successful DNA or RNA synthesis in no time.
The synthesizer you always wished for
Kilobaser Specifications
Kilobaser Synthesizer comes in two editions: The Basic Edition, which enables you to synthesize standard DNA, and Extended Edition which unlocks modified DNA and RNA synthesis.
Kilobaser DNA Synthesizer Basic Edition is by far the most affordable synthesizer on the market.
It is possible to upgrade a Kilobaser Synthesizer Basic Edition to the Extended Edition.
With a size of 27x33x33 cm the Kilobaser fits on any lab bench without taking up much space.
Kilobaser DNA & RNA synthesizer runs with nitrogen or argon gas pressure and therefore requires appropriate gas supply for its functionality. We will provide you country specific gas cylinder kits and help you to choose the right gas.
Kilobaser is directly controllable with the included touch screen. It shows you the progress of running synthesis and gives important information about your product.
If you connect Kilobaser with Wi-Fi, you can control it from any Internet-enabled device.
Kilobaser can be fully functional operated offline and thus offers maximum data security. Updates can also be performed offline. Online operation is optional.
Our approach to the shape and materials of Kilobaser is perfectly adapted to the lab environment and offers easy and safe handling.
Unlike conventional DNA synthesizers, Kilobaser is safe from any liquid leaks thanks to our patented microfluidic chip and cartridge technology. The disposable microfluidic chip forms a closed synthesis system that also protects against contamination during synthesis. The reagent cartridges are shipped filled. There is no need for additional reagents for the synthesis. The resulting liquid waste is also collected in the cartridge.
With a cycle time of only 2.5 minutes per base and 30-50 minutes of post-processing, synthesis of DNA and RNA oligos with Kilobaser is up to 6 times faster than with other synthesizers and is ready to use in just a few hours.
The microfluid chip contains one micro column on which the synthesis takes place. The chip becomes unusable after completion of one synthesis and must be disposed of.
A synthesis has a guarantied total yield of at least 300 pmol yield. If you need exact data for your application, we recommend measuring the concentration after synthesis.
In general, oligo quality behaves fairly linearly, so if you have a stepwise yield of 99.5% with 20nt, the same is generally true for 50 or 80nt. You can calculate 0.995^50=0.778, so you can expect ~78% of the 300pmol yield for the full length product for a 50mer.
The all-in-one reagent cartridge you need for your synthesis contains all the necessary reagents for your custom DNA or RNA product.
