Launch of Biotage® PrepXpert-8 smart automation system for sample prep

Biotage is excited to introduce the Biotage® PrepXpert-8, a fully automated 8-channel sample preparation system designed to streamline high-throughput workflows in environmental and PFAS analysis. Built for performance, compliance, and flexibility, Biotage® PrepXpert-8 helps laboratories reduce manual handling, improve consistency, and boost productivity. 

Automation that works for you 

Biotage® PrepXpert-8 is packed with intelligent features that simplify sample preparation and reduce manual intervention. Real-time cartridge clog detection, reagent and waste level monitoring, and quiet bottle rinsing help minimize downtime and ensure smooth operation. The touchscreen interface provides secure and intuitive method management. With traceable run reporting, the system supports compliance and makes audit readiness easier than ever. 

Parallel processing with dual-method capability 

The system’s dual-mode operation allows labs to run either a single method across all eight channels or two independent methods simultaneously. This flexibility is ideal for labs handling diverse sample types or developing new methods, enabling faster turnaround and better resource utilization. 

Engineered for confidence in PFAS testing 

Biotage® PrepXpert-8 is purpose-built for PFAS workflows, using carefully selected internal components to minimize background contamination and ensure reliable results. It supports a wide range of sample volumes (10–1500 mL) and cartridge sizes (1, 3, 6, and 15 mL), offering flexibility for diverse testing needs. Switching between application chemistries is also quick and straightforward. With modular tubing kits, polyethylene for PFAS workflows and PTFE for aggressive solvents, labs can transition between methods in minutes, without compromising data quality or performance. 

Seamless workflow integration 

Biotage® PrepXpert-8 integrates effortlessly with Biotage’s trusted sample preparation ecosystem, including EVOLUTE® PFAS, EVOLUTE® PFAS+, ISOLUTE® cartridges, and TurboVap® evaporators. This ensures compatibility across the entire workflow, from extraction to evaporation.
