Downstream Analysis Compatibility 

Analysis-Ready Eluates for Molecular, Cellular, and Multi-Omics Workflows

 

Compatible with PCR, sequencing, flow cytometry, culture-based methods, and advanced analytical workflows 

across clinical, environmental, and research applications.

InnovaPrep systems generate aqueous, analysis-ready Wet Foam Eluates™ compatible with a broad range of downstream analytical methods. Using FluidPrep™ and AirPrep™ with Wet Foam Elution™ (WFE), samples from liquid matrices and dry air filters are rapidly converted into a unified liquid format—enabling immediate analysis without culture enrichment or extensive sample preparation.

These eluates support high-sensitivity molecular workflows—including PCR, qPCR, sequencing, and multiplex assays—while also enabling culture-based studies, cellular analysis, and advanced multi-omics approaches. By concentrating targets and reducing matrix complexity, InnovaPrep workflows integrate seamlessly into existing laboratory methods and improve analytical sensitivity across diverse applications.

what sets us apart

multi-target concentration

Capture multiple target organisms from large volumes. 

detection system agnostic

Elution buffers are highly compatible with any downstream method from culture to molecular and viability studies. 

 streamlined workflows

Simple workflow with consistent, reliable results. 

Innovaprep ultrafiltration (following solids removal) had the highest sequencing sensitivity and richness, resulting in the successful assembly of most near-complete human virus genomes.
