Our Lab is Your Lab
Access the latest in automated extraction equipment, chemistries and protocols from our team of US-based extraction experts dedicated to your project’s success. Every extraction project is unique. Our lab is equipped to handle everything down to the most minute detail. We work with you to customize the ideal instrumentation, chemistry, and protocol for the best results.
Unmatched Service at Every Step
Time is critical in sample processing. Unlike larger, generalist labs, when you call AutoGen, a person answers. We work tirelessly to ensure successful outcomes for our clients, while quickly turning around your project– without sacrificing yield or quality. From start to finish, you get a true partnership unlike any other in the industry.
Cutting-Edge Extraction Workflows
AutoGen has a wide range of extraction workflows at our disposal. We work with you to choose the right chemistry and instrumentation that works best for your particular project. This consultative approach ensures you get high-quality nucleic acid that’s ready for all your downstream needs.
Why Outsource?
Nucleic acid isolation is the foundation of any molecular biology workflow, and this step is integral to the success of downstream assays. Ensuring that RNA and DNA extractions are done correctly with the highest yield and nucleic acid integrity is critical. Often, you only get this sample once, so choose an experienced partner for your sample preparation.
AutoGen has been working to provide samples that are high quality and molecular weight suitable for PCR, SNP genotyping, DNA methylation, NGS, and more for over 25 years.
With such a broad range of options, outsourcing your sample prep and management to AutoGen could start with a small pilot project or help you scale quickly to support the expansion of your business.

Precipitation Based Isolation
Our FlexSTAR+ is a fully automated solution for gDNA extraction and isolation from large volumes of blood, saliva, buffy coats, and more. The FlexSTAR+ is the first and only totally automated system utilizing Qiagen’s FlexiGene chemistry to isolate genomic DNA free of RNA and other contaminants. The FlexSTAR+ also offers full sample tracking and LIS integration.
This proven precipitation chemistry produces pure, high molecular weight gDNA ready for immediate use and long-term storage.
Magnetic Bead Based Isolation
The XTRACT 16+® robotic, benchtop workstation provides fast, high-yield, nucleic acid purification from virtually all molecular diagnostic, biological, clinical, and forensic sample types. This workflow is extremely flexible, offering protocols for DNA and RNA isolation from solid tissues, like FFPE to liquid based or cell-line samples.
Patented Porous Membrane
Our QuickGene series uses an ultra-thin, polymer, porous membrane along with gentle, positive air pressure to provide a quick high-purity, high-yield nucleic acid extraction. With this process, nucleic acid can be rapidly and reliably isolated at low pressure without being damaged, which realizes high-quality nucleic acid isolation.

Additional Service Options
Every nucleic acid extraction project is different. From sample type to quality requirements to downstream applications, our team works with you to build a custom workflow that fits your exact requirements. These are some of the ways we can further customize your project.
Sample Normalization
Need your samples standardized? We’ve got you. We’re here to help ensure any subsequent analysis your lab has planned for your samples gives clean data and reproducible results across every sample. Our experts work with you to meet your exact specifications.
Plate Replicates
If your samples are needed for a large-scale study, we can replicate as many samples as you need so you can perform your analysis. Our workflows and stringent QC procedures ensure variations are minimized across samples, ensuring your downstream analysis is reliable and reproducible.
Fractionation
Our team can fractionate your blood samples and extract DNA from the cell type needed for your downstream analysis. We work with you to give you what you need to ensure your downstream analysis is successful. No matter what you’re targeting, our team can help you separate it for analysis.
Aliquoting
If you need specific concentrations or identical replicates from the same sample, we can aliquot the extracted genetic material to match the concentrations required for your downstreams. When aliquoting, we treat every sample with care as if a life depends on it because, in many cases, that’s not an overstatement.
Multi-location Sample Distribution
Have multiple lab locations? Need certain samples to go to certain locations? No problem. We can work with you to ensure your samples get to where they need to be when they need to be there.
Additional QC Procedures
We ensure every sample meets the standards for your downstream. If sample integrity is critical in your downstream application, our team can run your samples through a TapeStation to generate a DIN or RIN to verify the overall quality of your extraction.
Sample Storage & Management
Let our teams ensure your diverse samples are securely stored, carefully monitored and accessible as you need them. Our high-capacity biorepository partner can store your precious samples in many temperature environments. The seasoned experts here at AutoGen can help you plan your research and facilitate appropriate, high-quality analysis, including a wide range of sample storage services, as well as high-capacity biorepositories.
Multiomics
Through our partnerships, we offer comprehensive multiomics services encompassing sample processing and extraction, sequencing (DNA, RNA, proteomics), PCR, microarrays for in-depth variation analysis, and tailored bioinformatics, promoting seamless research integration.
