» PCR System
Polymerase chain reaction (PCR), is a common method of creating copies of specific fragments of DNA. PCR rapidly amplifies a single DNA molecule into many billions of molecules. In one application of the technology, small samples of DNA, such as those found in a strand of hair at a crime scene, can produce sufficient copies to carry out forensic tests.
To
eliminate the need for manual labour during routine and laborious tasks
that come with DNA amplification, sequencing and genotyping we offer a
PCR automated system.

Benefits
- High-end laboratory table with a reliable robotic arm.
- Dynamic scheduler with lookahead feature.
- Instrument pooling. If one real-time PCR goes down, the scheduler adjusts itself.
- Barcode recovery. When microplate barcode can not be read, the system continues running.
- Microplate jam recovery. When microplate jams, the system does not fetch the microplate from the corresponding nest.
- Possibility of adding microplates during the run.
- Can run different experiments for each batch of microplates.
- Easy addition of a liquid handler, plate sealer or incubator.
- Capacity: from 88 to 220 STD microplates.
- Footprint: 64x61 inches.
