Overview:
The AutoLys STAR from Hamilton Company is developed to automate cell lysis and early-stage DNA preparation in a controlled and standardized manner. It replaces multiple manual steps with a single integrated workflow, improving consistency and reducing hands-on effort. The system combines processes such as incubation, mixing, and separation within one platform, ensuring efficient sample processing from input to lysate collection. Its enclosed design helps maintain sample integrity while supporting traceability throughout the workflow.
