Cancer research and liquid biopsy

KingFisher systems and kits are ready to support today's cancer research and are constantly evolving alongside the oncology field. Through versatile functionality, these tools provide a solution that enables workflows across a variety of downstream translational cancer research applications.

Sample preparation for cancer research


Kits, reagents, and protocols

KingFisher systems are optimized for MagMAX kits, SMART Digest kits, and Dynabeads purification kits and reagents for extraction of nucleic acids, proteins, and cells. They are also designed to adapt to your changing research needs. That’s why we include free software with all KingFisher instruments so that you can create, modify, and store your own protocols or download tested protocols from our website.

 

To select the best kit for your application, and to view compatible protocols for download, see the Kits, Reagents, and Protocols tab or go directly to our selection guide.
