Spectrum CE Systems for Forensic Analysis
Big and Powerful, or Small and Mighty. The Choice Is Yours.
We developed the Spectrum Family of CE instruments with the day-to-day challenges of the forensic analyst in mind. Whether you need higher throughput, 4-plate capacity, or simply want a smaller instrument that are both 8-dye technology accesible and compatible with existing 4-, 5- and 6-dye STR kits for your forensic samples, there’s a Spectrum CE System for you.
Built for Your Workflow
Spectrum CE System
Spectrum has four 96-well plate positions and provides continuous access to those plates. This means that you can run partial plates and add samples during a run—gaining scheduling flexibility while still maintaining productivity
Spectrum Compact CE System
Fast run times and a touchscreen interface will get you from A to B with the least amount of fuss.
Support for Existing and Future Technologies
Both instruments support 8-color chemistry, offering superior results over existing kits and are compatible with existing 5- and 6-color STR kits from multiple vendors. The Spectrum Compact CE System also supports Sanger sequencing, making it ideal for de novo sequencing or NGS confirmation, in addition to fragment analysis.
