Covaris, a PerkinElmer company. Sample prep solutions powered by AFA® technology for precise, reproducible, high-quality data.

Covaris is the recognized industry leader for DNA fragmentation. Adaptive Focused Acoustics® (AFA®) is the gold standard for shearing DNA and RNA in Next-Generation Sequencing applications, without GC bias or thermal-induced damage. Users precisely and accurately fragment DNA and RNA to the 100-1500bp range with the microTUBE, and 2-5kb range with the miniTUBE. The Covaris AFA process is extensive

ly cited in peer-reviewed research articles on DNA fragmentation using all available NGS systems. Covaris Focused-ultrasonicators are recommended by all major sequencing platform providers, and are used by leading Genome Centers worldwide including: the Wellcome Trust Sanger Institute, the Broad Institute, and BGI.

FFPE is the most abundant clinical sample type in cancer research — yet extracting reliable multiomic data from archived tissue remains a real challenge.

Our industry symposium at EACR 2026 addresses this directly, with experts demonstrating how AFA®-enabled workflows maximize analyte recovery and deliver confident results for DNA, RNA, and protein.

Wednesday 10 June | 13:30–14:15 | Room F9-10

The bottleneck in large-scale genomics isn't sequencing, it's getting the sample in the first place.

Traditional phlebotomy requires clinical visits, cold-chain logistics, and a shrinking healthcare workforce. Saliva and swabs seem like the easy fix, but microbial contamination wastes up to 30% of sequencing output.

There's a better way. Our latest thought leadership paper breaks down why whole blood remains the gold standard and how decentralized collection is finally catching up.

Scaling population genomics programs is not a sequencing problem.
It’s a sample collection problem.

Cold chain logistics, inconsistent sample quality, and patient access slow everything down.
In our upcoming presentation, we’ll show how dry-stabilized capillary blood collection eliminates those barriers without compromising data integrity.

Real data. Real validation. No tradeoffs.

The future of genomic research depends on how samples are collected.
As studies scale and decentralize, collection methods need to be just as advanced as the sequencing itself.

In this session, we’ll show how the truCOLLECT® Solution is enabling that shift, with validated performance across:
• DNA extraction
• NGS library preparation
• Downstream validation methods

This is what scalable, high-quality sample collection looks like.
