DOE Human Genome Program Report

 

DNA Prep Machine.  The DNA Prep machine was designed by Berkeley Lab's Martin Pollard to perform plasmid preparation on 192 samples (2microtiter plates) in about 2.5 to 4 hours, depending on the protocol. Controlled by a personal computer running a Visual Basic Control program, the instrument includes a gantry robot equipped with pipettors, reagent dispensers, hot and cold temperature stations, and a pneumatic gripper.
