We are looking into size selection instruments (Pippin Prep)... and wondering 2 things.
1. alternatives
2. any user feedback
Thank you very much.

Current automated systems includes: Pippin Prep or Blue, LabChip XT and Expedeon. Performance of Pippin is better than LabChip (or at least was better a year ago). LabChip eluates contain a trail of small fragments a bit like manual gels. There are some manual systems as well. -
Note that there is another option - Nimbus Select available from Hamilton Robotics - for size selection.
Full disclosure, I am a vendor.Comment

NGS has revolutionized clinical microbiology by offering new ways to identify and surveil pathogens without prior knowledge of the target. One popular approach is 16S rRNA and ITS amplicon sequencing, which targets specific microbial markers. But studies are increasingly incorporating shotgun metagenomics, a technique that sequences all DNA from a sample without targeting specific microbial markers. This approach allows more detailed taxonomic classification,...10-30-2026, 06:46 AM -
Tumors contain complex mixtures of cell populations that evolve in response to treatment and host-specific factors. Tissue biopsies provide only static snapshots of a tumor’s state. But what if we could follow that evolution over time using a minimally invasive technique?
Liquid biopsies can detect tumor-derived material circulating in the bloodstream, providing a way to study treatment response, detect emerging resistance, and discover new biomarkers. Circulating...10-14-2026, 09:55 AM
