QIAxcel Connect System

The USDA, APHIS, PPQ, NIS National Specialists provide support for identifications of insect specimens
intercepted as part of domestic and AQI (Agriculture Quarantine Inspection) programs at ports of entry and
emergency program activities. The QIAxcel Connect System for the NIS Molecular Mycology Lab (MML)
replaces traditional, labor-intensive gel analysis of DNA via a fully automated, high-throughput system that
reduces working time and human error and increases quality of results.
