The Inhibitor Problem

Explore how inhibitors like heme, mucins, urea, and bile salts interfere with amplification-altering Ct values, masking low-copy targets, and compromising quantitative accuracy across sample types.

Hidden Workflow Complexity

See the step-by-step breakdown of both methods, including aliquoting, centrifugation, heat treatment, and bead-beating requirements that reveal the true complexity of extractionless workflows.

Head-to-Head Technical Data

Review detailed comparison metrics including processing time, manual steps, nucleic acid recovery rates, contamination risk, and the science behind magnetic bead technology's >98% recovery consistency.
