Powered by Enzymatic DNA Synthesis (EDS) Technology, the SYNTAX System is a DNA printer that enables on-demand synthesis of custom DNA oligos in a benchtop solution. Designed for speed, convenience, flexibility, and ease of use, SYNTAX enables you to create custom oligos in your own lab without the need for specialized infrastructure or technical skills.

Printing your own DNA oligos on-site can give you more control over workflows, sequencing information, and security, and mitigates delays and other logistical challenges from third-party manufacturing. Enjoy higher productivity, more predictable project schedules, and fewer hidden costs to accelerate the pace of innovation and fuel discoveries.

Simple, Guided Setup Lets Anyone Print Oligos from Anywhere

Printing oligos is simple with the SYNTAX System. The SYNTAX System comes with an integrated touchscreen and on-board computer running the SYNTAX System Software. With the System Software, users are guided through the steps to start a run in 15 to 30 minutes. Once a run starts, the System Software automates all of the synthesis, post-processing, and concentration normalization of the oligos.

More powerful yet still simple, Console Software lets users interact with the SYNTAX System from their PC through the cloud or through an on-premises local network. With Console Software, users can upload sequence files, schedule and track every synthesis run, monitor run progress and instrument performance, and view and manage results.

SYNTAX 96 Hi-Fidelity Kits Product Sheet

The SYNTAX 96 Hi-Fidelity Kits include the reagent and consumables required for the parallel enzymatic synthesis of 96 ready to-use DNA oligos of up to 120 nucleotides (nt) in length and are intended for use in applications requiring high sequence accuracy, such as gene assembly, protein mutagenesis, or CRISPR gene editing. Rapid setup and printing of oligos enable same or next-day use in downstream workflows. The synthesis and run kit are both required for oligo synthesis using the SYNTAX System.

SYNTAX 96 Standard Kits Product Sheet

The SYNTAX 96 Standard Kits include the reagents and consumables required for the parallel enzymatic synthesis of 96 ready-to-use DNA oligos of up to 80nt in length. Standard Kits are intended for use in applications such as PCR, qPCR, Sanger sequencing, protein engineering, or target enrichment. Rapid setup and print of oligos enable same or next-day use in downstream workflows. The Synthesis Kit and Standard Run Kit are both required for oligo synthesis on SYNTAX System.

SYNTAX System and Software Product Sheet

The SYNTAX System is a fully integrated automated instrument that manages the template-free enzymatic synthesis of up to 96 oligos in parallel. This benchtop system synthesizes, desalts, quantifies, and normalizes oligos with or without fluorescent or other modifications. Oligos are ready for immediate input into downstream molecular biology and genomics workflows. Intuitive software allows for the scheduling and management of DNA synthesis runs in addition to reviewing synthesis results.
