Description of Services

Masmec Biomed designs and provides devices for the medical and biotech sectors. We have a solid background in mechatronic, robotic and signal processing technologies, as we are a division of MASMEC S.p.A, a leader in this field. Our products are developed by a team of specialists combining different skills and expertise in computer science, electronics, biomedicine and biology.

We specialize in liquid handling for automatic DNA and RNA extraction and plate preparation for research and analysis labs. We offer a family of biotech workstations, named OMNIA, fitting many protocols in molecular biology, genomics, proteomics and pharmacology. OMNIA workstations support human, animal and plant DNA and RNA extraction, amplification setup, plate preparation, post-PCR purification and biobanking for research and analysis, enabling fast, accurate and very flexible processing. OMNIA Prima is an automated system for extracting DNA and RNA from blood, saliva or other biological fluid samples, tissues and plant samples(leaves, roots). This workstation is based on magnetic bead technology and it is able to process up to 24 samples at a time in less than 100 minutes. It is possible to use one of the recommended and validated extraction kits, whose automatic protocol is already available, or to test and employ other magnetic bead-based kits or specific protocols, counting on customized management for each lab.

Technical support is guaranteed during the whole life cycle of any MASMEC Biomed product. After first extraction tests with our instrument and your kits, we can provide genomic services for DNA and RNA extraction for your customers starting from your Oragene kit. At the same time we are looking for international distributors of our instruments.
