Gold for Precision Automation in the Lab: Microlab PuriFY Simplifies DNA Purification

With the Microlab PuriFY, Hamilton Bonaduz has developed a device that quickly and precisely purifies DNA and RNA – the carriers of genetic information. The system impresses with high efficiency, sustainability, and intuitive operation. For this achievement, it was awarded Gold at the German Innovation Awards 2025.

When researchers prepare samples for genetic analysis, DNA and RNA must first be freed from interfering residues. This preparation step is one of the most important – and most demanding – tasks in the laboratory. Manual processes are prone to errors and consume valuable time. This is exactly where the Microlab PuriFY comes in: it automates the preparation and purification of nucleic acids, enabling research institutions, diagnostic laboratories, and pharmaceutical companies to simplify and accelerate their workflows.

At the heart of the device is a patented magnetic technology that precisely attracts tiny particles to isolate the genetic material. This ensures accurate and reproducible purification. Combined with a clear, structured design and an intuitive interface, it offers a solution that combines precision, reliability, and user-friendliness.

Efficiency Redefined

The Microlab PuriFY stands out with its compact design, which saves space, and its sustainable concept, which reduces the consumption of disposable materials, such as pipette tips, by up to 80%. This saves resources and protects the environment. Especially in laboratories with high sample throughput, automation fully unfolds its potential, ensuring consistently high quality while reducing manual workload.

“A holistic combination of efficiency, reliability, and flexibility – a truly outstanding solution for contemporary laboratories.”
