CARLSBAD, Calif. – Thermo Fisher Scientific today announced the launch of the Invitrogen™ E-Gel™ Power Snap Lite Electrophoresis System, a compact, all-in-one solution designed for routine nucleic acid verification workflows.

The ready-to-use system brings gel electrophoresis and imaging together in a single platform, allowing researchers to verify nucleic acid samples without gel casting, buffer preparation or separate imaging equipment. With a simple load, run and analyze workflow, the Power Snap Lite system helps laboratories reduce hands-on time and improve consistency.

“Labs need faster, simpler ways to handle routine workflows without sacrificing reliability,” said Anjali Shah, Senior Director and General Manager, PCR, molecular biology, Thermo Fisher Scientific. “With Power Snap Lite, we’ve combined key steps into one easy-to-use system so researchers can move from sample to result more efficiently.”

The E-Gel™ Power Snap Lite system enables efficient nucleic acid analysis, including:

• Run and image gels in a single system
• Quickly verify DNA and RNA samples
• Fewer manual steps compared to pour-your-own workflows

  Designed for routine and low-throughput workflows, the system complements the Invitrogen™ E-Gel™ Power Snap Plus system, giving laboratories the flexibility to scale from quick verification to more advanced analysis
