MAGBIO in Italy
CABRU distributes MAGBIO (MagBio Genomics) in Italy, a United States manufacturer in Gaithersburg, Maryland, specialising in paramagnetic bead systems for sample preparation. The CABRU catalogue lists 57 references, 38 of them in the HighPrep line.
About MAGBIO
MagBio Genomics is based in Gaithersburg, Maryland (United States), and builds its entire offer around a single chemistry: paramagnetic beads. The company states that it develops custom systems for OEM integration and long-term supply, and names among its counterparts platform developers, sequencing laboratories and clinical genomics organisations.
What MAGBIO makes
- HighPrep line — 38 catalogue references covering PCR product clean-up, post-reaction purification and size selection for library preparation. → Nucleic acids
- Extraction kits — genomic DNA, plasmid DNA, RNA, circulating DNA (cfDNA) and viral and pathogen nucleic acids.
- Sample collection and stabilisation — tubes and reagents that stabilise DNA, RNA and proteins from the point of collection.
- Magnetic accessories — stands, racks and plates for manual separation.
MAGBIO references in the CABRU catalogue
The 57 MAGBIO references in the CABRU catalogue are classified by workflow stage: 11 for NGS, 9 for viral and pathogen nucleic acid extraction, 6 for cfDNA, 6 for genomic DNA, 6 for collection and stabilisation, 4 for RNA, 4 for sequencing, 3 for plasmid DNA and 2 for gel purification. It is a catalogue that reads like a pipeline rather than a product list.
Application areas
Library preparation for NGS and Sanger sequencing, reaction clean-up and size selection, liquid biopsy and cfDNA, pathogen surveillance and infectious disease research, and high-throughput workflows. Paramagnetic bead chemistry suits automated protocols on liquid handling platforms, which is the main reason it is chosen in high-volume laboratories.
From the collection tube to a clean library
The MAGBIO advantage shows when the whole pipeline is considered rather than a single step: stabilisation at collection, extraction, post-PCR purification and size selection with the same chemistry and without switching supplier halfway. CABRU frames the enquiry around the stage to be covered and the sample volume per run, and checks automation formats with the manufacturer.
