Product Overview & Technology
The NuGEN Mondrian SP+ Workstation (manufactured by Advanced Liquid Logic, Model R110-LC) is a highly specialized, benchtop sample preparation system designed for Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) library workflows. Unlike traditional liquid handlers that rely on mechanical pipettes, pumps, or valves, the Mondrian SP+ utilizes revolutionary Digital Microfluidics (DMF) powered by Electrowetting-on-Dielectric (EWOD) technology. By applying software-controlled electrical pulse sequences to an array of insulated electrodes, the system manipulates discrete nanoliter-scale aqueous droplets—moving, splitting, merging, and incubating them simultaneously and independently across a self-contained cartridge. This "load-and-go" automation minimizes hands-on labor, eliminates carryover contamination risks, and significantly improves cross-sample reproducibility.

Condition & Included Components
This listing includes the primary instrument chassis, ideal for lab replacement, specialized microfluidic research, or parts backup:
- 1x Advanced Liquid Logic / NuGEN Mondrian SP+ Workstation (Model R110-LC)
- Condition: Sourced from a working laboratory environment. The unit powers up cleanly, the touchscreen interface is highly responsive, and the internal cartridge bay mechanisms are intact. The cosmetic condition is excellent, showing only minor, typical handling wear on the exterior casing. Internal chamber electrodes are clean and free of corrosion or liquid staining.
- Note: Does not include disposable universal cartridges or specific NuGEN reagent kits, which must be sourced separately.
