The mini thermal cycler retains the advanced programming features, easy to use software and fast, reliable cycling of the larger TC-9639 thermal cycler, but with a smaller block and lower price point.
- Intuitive touch screen control
- Program wizard with familiar icon driven programming
- Optimize results with Accuris™ PCR reagents
- Capacity for 32×0.2 ml or four PCR strips
Designed for lower throughput needs, the TC-32 mini thermal cycler has a capacity for 32×0.2 ml tubes. The wells are arranged in a 4×8 format, allowing the block to accept strips of eight as well as individual tubes. The block heats and cools very quickly at rates as fast as 5 °C/s. A proprietary algorithm controls block temperature, bringing samples quickly to the target temperature without any over or under shoot. Excellent block uniformity ensures consistency sample to sample.
Operation of the thermal cycler is controlled from the large, full color, touch screen. Icon driven menu allow users to get running quickly. Programming is extremely simple and includes options for time and temperature increment/decrements, adjustable ramp rates, and an auto pause and restart functions. More than 100 typical programs can be stored in memory and easily recalled.
The heated lid is self adjusting the spring loaded platen in the lid comes firmly into contact with the tops of the tubes to prevent sample evaporation and condensation. There are no knobs to turn or levers to adjust. The temperature of the heated lid can be changed or the heating function of the lid may be turned off.
