Medicines & Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency awarded a contract to Agilent Technologies LDA UK Ltd for an automated electrophoresis system for quality control of DNA and RNA samples, including genomic DNA, cell-free DNA, DNA libraries for sequencing, eukaryotic total RNA and mRNA, and prokaryotic total RNA.

The system analyzes small volumes (≤3 µl), prevents sample-to-sample contamination and carryover, and provides data on quantification and sample integrity (molecular weight, size distribution).

Detection limits include 0.1 ng/µl for genomic DNA and total RNA, and <50 pg/µl for cell-free DNA.

The contract value is £39,087.9.
