Driven by the needs of several large population cohorts, the Biobanking and BioMolecular Resource Infrastructure of Sweden (BBMRI.se) has established, and now operates, a large-scale facility for the rapid purification of high quality DNA from human whole blood at the KI Biobank. The facility has a throughput of up to 1000 whole blood samples per day on two parallel automated systems.
