The Megaruptor® 2 was designed to provide the best experience with the fragmentation of DNA from 3 kb - 75 kb. Shearing performance is independent of the source, concentration, temperature, or salt content of a DNA sample. Our user-friendly interface allows for two samples to be processed sequentially without additional user input and without cross-contamination. Just set the desired parameters and the automated system takes care of the rest. Clogging issues are eliminated in this design. The shearing with the Megaruptor leads to optimal long-read sequencing using PacBio®'s, and Oxford Nanopore™ technologies' systems.
