Overview
The Applied Biosystems 3500 Genetic Analyzer is an eight-capillary electrophoresis instrument built for the demands of validated, process-controlled labs while keeping the application flexibility researchers expect. The 3500 series improves signal uniformity instrument-to-instrument, run-to-run and capillary-to-capillary, thanks to a combination of updated hardware, algorithms and reagent pairings.
A revised thermal subsystem improves performance in demanding fragment-analysis applications, delivering better sizing precision than earlier capillary-electrophoresis generations. It's a dependable choice for Sanger sequencing and fragment analysis in both clinical and research settings. The unit ships refurbished and function-tested, with software and consumable status confirmed per system.
