Pre-filled and ready to go

Manta operates on pre-filled cartridges to make your workflow smooth sailing. Just peel off the seal, add your sample, and you're ready to start!

Flexible, for your lab

Whether you need to run just 1 sample or up to 32 samples, Manta adapts to your lab's workload. It’s perfect for labs of all sizes, maximizing efficiency without wasting reagents or time.

Handles input volumes

from µL to mL

Handles input volumes

from µL to mL

With Manta, you can work with starting sample volumes ranging from 100 μl to 4 mL. This makes it ideal for labs handling different sample types and volumes

Manta is about 4x smaller than other automation systems. It is designed efficiently to take up less space on your workbench

Quick run time

Manta operates on pre-filled cartridges to make your workflow smooth sailing. Just peel off the seal, add your sample, and you're ready to start!

After years of developing and perfecting magnetic nanoparticles for genomic workflows, we have adapted our beads to an automated solution to help you achieve your extraction goals in record time.

Manta uses this magnetic bead-based technology to purify DNA, RNA,

and cell-free DNA.

Manta uses this magnetic bead-based technology to purify DNA, RNA, and cell-free DNA.

The device operates on cartridges that feature distinct wells filled with beads and buffers. The before magnetic rods collect the beads and transfer them to subsequent wells, taking the sample through lysis, binding, washing, and elution–ultimately providing you with high molecular weight nucleic acid.
