Thermal Cycler

MultiGene Gradient Thermal Cyclers feature an intuitive and easy-to-use interface, which makes setting up protocols quick and simple. Programming is accessed through both the alphanumeric keypad and the large, back-lit LCD display which features on-screen prompts and a graphical representation of protocol steps. Protocols can be optimized by utilizing a 12-row gradient that can be set up across the block. In addition, time and temperature increments can be applied for touchdown applications. Microprocessor control of the Peltier units, combined with sophisticated algorithms, provide accurate temperature modulation with minimal temperature over/undershoot. Several common protocols come preprogrammed and newly created protocols can be saved. The design of the thermal cycler features a sliding, fully-adjustable heated lid that provides proper pressure and temperature for tubes, strips, and plates. The lid provides full access to samples while protecting users from the hot lid surface. A 96x0.2 mL block version is currently available.
