World's first: Personnel DNA analyzer by Spartan

To analyze your DNA in the comfort of your home, Spartan Bioscience Incorporation has announced the commercial launch of their Spartan DXTM real-time PCR (polymerase chain reaction) DNA analyzer.
This highly accurate DNA testing device is a ‘gold standard’ for molecular diagnostics that promises to offer DNA results in just 30 minutes or less for 4 samples at a time.
Though, it is a bit slow and expensive, since batched in contrast to mainframe-style DNA machines those are especially designed for highly-trained scientists to work on high-throughput environments and if we compare this machine with other mainframe-style DNA machines, Spartan DXTM is designed for non-batched, on-demand DNA applications in which speed and convenience is vital, whereas its applications are concerned it comprises low-throughput research experiments and non-batched testing for infectious diseases.
