NA-DP™ membrane holds back proteins, lipids, and debris and lets nucleic acids pass straight through. Because nothing depends on capturing and releasing the DNA, the same membrane works in a spin column for the lab, a syringe for POCT, a plate for high throughput, or a preparative column for larger volume.
The TachyNA™ Kits are a series of nucleic acid purification products built based on NA-DP™ technology.
Most extraction chemistries capture the nucleic acid, wash it, then release it — and each step costs time and material, especially short fragments. Biomics' NA-DP™ Direct Pass technology inverts that logic: the membrane adsorbs proteins, lipids, pigments, and debris, and nucleic acids pass straight through in a single step.
The sample crosses the membrane once. There's no bind, wash, or elute to time, and no chaotropic salts carried into your assay.
The membrane holds impurities, not nucleic acid — so short fragments aren't lost during binding and yield isn't lost to washes.
Centrifuge, syringe, vacuum, or gravity flow: whatever pushes the sample through the membrane can run the chemistry. That is what makes it a platform.
Pick the way your lab — or your instrument — moves liquid. The NA-DP™ membrane is the same in each format, from a benchtop spin column to a point-of-care syringe to a preparative column.
The format the TachyNA™ Plasma cfNA Kit ships in. Load the sample, spin once in a standard benchtop centrifuge, and collect purified cfDNA in the tube below.
The membrane sits in a filter housing at the tip of a syringe. Pressing the plunger pushes the sample through — no centrifuge needed, which suits point-of-care settings.
The membrane in an SBS-format 96-well plate, for processing up to 96 samples in one run. Large-volume formats are also available for bigger inputs.
A larger gravity- or low-pressure column that runs bigger plasma or serum inputs through the same NA-DP™ membrane — for preparative-scale nucleic-acid recovery beyond the spin-column volume.
The TachyNA™ Plasma cfNA Kit in the Spin Unit format: 50 preparations (Cat. No. H02CN1) or a 20-preparation evaluation kit (H02CN1-E).
Syringe, 96-well plate, and large-volume formats are supplied to qualified customers on request.
Bind–wash–elute chemistries favor fragments long enough to bind well. NA-DP™ never has to capture the nucleic acid, so it isn't tuned to a size — short fragments, where much of the cfDNA signal sits, come through with everything else.

Biomics is building the sample-preparation layer for molecular diagnostics: three separation technologies designed to work from the same sample — NA-DP™ for nucleic acids, and wide-bore electrophoresis (WBE) for proteins, extracellular vesicles (EVs), and cells.
Cell-free DNA from plasma and serum today, with the TachyNA™ Plasma cfNA Kit. Cell-free RNA is on the roadmap.
Electrophoretic protein separation from the same sample, built on Biomics' wide-bore electrophoresis heritage.
Wide-bore electrophoresis applied to isolating extracellular vesicles from the same sample, capturing EV-borne cargo alongside nucleic acids, proteins, and cells.
Wide-bore electrophoresis applied to separating cell populations, so cells can be prepared alongside nucleic acids and proteins.
Since its founding, Biomics has worked in three disciplines: sorbent design, membrane chemistry, and electrokinetic transport. NA-DP™ draws on the first two; WBE on the third. The platform is where twenty-five years of separation science converge on diagnostics.
