QIAGEN to unveil high-throughput automation system for labs at SLAS 2026
QIAGEN N.V. announced the first public showcase of QIAsprint Connect at SLAS 2026 in Boston, marking QIAGEN’s entry into high-throughput benchtop automation for sample processing in research laboratories.
QIAsprint Connect is designed to help labs process large batches of samples efficiently while retaining control over protocols and reducing environmental footprint. The compact system supports up to 192 samples per run and offers customizable workflows with an intuitive user interface and modular kit design. Its sustainability-focused consumables reduce plastic use and packaging waste while delivering top performance.
Alongside QIAsprint Connect, QIAGEN will present QIAsymphony Connect, a new platform for high-yield DNA and RNA extraction in clinical laboratories, and QIAmini, a compact automation system tailored for low-throughput labs seeking accessible walkaway sample preparation.
QIAsprint Connect combines high-throughput capacity, workflow flexibility and sustainability-focused design to support demanding research applications:
- High-throughput efficiency: Processes up to 192 samples per run with minimal manual intervention.
- Flexible workflow design: Supports QIAGEN-tested and fully customizable protocols via touch-based interface and modular chemistry.
- Sustainability-focused consumables: Reduces plastic use by up to 50% and also cuts packaging volume by 40%.
- Compact benchtop footprint: Provides high-throughput capability in a space-saving format for existing lab environments.
- Connectivity and compliance readiness: Supports modern data integrity and cybersecurity requirements, including 21 CFR Part 11 readiness.
QIAGEN will unveil QIAsprint Connect live at SLAS 2026 in Boston on February 9 at 2:30 p.m. EST.
