Covaris

Covaris Covaris, a PerkinElmer company. Sample prep solutions powered by AFA® technology for precise, reproducible, high-quality data.

Covaris is the recognized industry leader for DNA fragmentation. Adaptive Focused Acoustics® (AFA®) is the gold standard for shearing DNA and RNA in Next-Generation Sequencing applications, without GC bias or thermal-induced damage. Users precisely and accurately fragment DNA and RNA to the 100-1500bp range with the microTUBE, and 2-5kb range with the miniTUBE. The Covaris AFA process is extensive

ly cited in peer-reviewed research articles on DNA fragmentation using all available NGS systems. Covaris Focused-ultrasonicators are recommended by all major sequencing platform providers, and are used by leading Genome Centers worldwide including: the Wellcome Trust Sanger Institute, the Broad Institute, and BGI.

As decentralized research expands, how do remote sampling approaches compare?

Join experts from the University of Puerto Rico Medical Sciences Campus, University of Florida College of Medicine, and Covaris to explore the primary limitations of dried blood spots and saliva for NGS-based applications—including analyte stability and contamination risks.

Discover how finger-stick whole blood collected using the truCOLLECT® Solution can support genomic research and personalized medicine.

Sample quality varies. Your RNA library prep workflow shouldn't have to.

The truCOVER® Total RNA Library Prep Kit with Globin RNA Depletion Module runs FFPE, whole blood, cell culture, and fresh frozen tissue on the same AFA®-driven chemistry and the same validated protocol.

Consistent insert sizes even from degraded RNA — FFPE at DV200 ≥ 30%, whole blood at RIN ≥ 5.

Same workflow across all sample types and qualities.

From Variability to Standardization: Reframing Protein Analysis with Comprehensive Sample Preparation Workflows Enabled with Adaptive Focused Acoustics® (AFA®) Technology

Genomics has standardized protocols for extraction and library prep, defined steps, established QC checkpoints, and a shared vocabulary for troubleshooting. Proteomics has never had that same baseline.

Every lab’s extraction, purification, and digestion conditions can differ—and that variability can outweigh anything happening downstream on the mass spectrometer.

In this thought leadership piece, Covaris scientists explore why building that missing standard, rather than incremental instrument gains, could define the next phase of proteomics and how controlled acoustic energy through AFA® Technology can help deliver it, even for challenging sample types like FFPE tissue.
