Use the QX200 droplet generator to complete the first step of the Droplet Digital PCR (ddPCR™) workflow by partitioning ddPCR reaction mix into 20,000 nanoliter-sized droplets for up to 8 samples per run. The droplet generator is used with the QX200 droplet reader for EvaGreen or probe-based digital PCR applications.

Associated components and consumables included: DG8™ cartridges, DG8™ gaskets, and cartridge holder
