GeneAmp PCR System 9700
Commercial house: Applied Biosystems
Unit: 1
Location: Room 312
The GeneAmp PCR System 9700 amplifies nucleic acids using the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) process. The 0.5-mL Sample Block Module is attached to the top of the GeneAmp PCR System 9700 Base Module and allows you to perform up to 60 reactions. The instrument is used by our staff to carry out RT and conventional PCR reactions requested by internal and external users.
MJ Mini Thermal Cycler
Commercial house: Bio-Rad
Unit: 1
Location: Room 312
The 48-well MJ Mini™ thermal cycler is a powerful, small-capacity, high-performance thermal cycler. The MJ Mini™ cycler offers thermal gradient technology so you can optimize reactions for maximum efficiency.
The MJ Mini™ thermal cycler features:
- Premium cycling in a medium capacity cycler.
- The MJ Mini™ thermal cycler can hold 48 x 0.2 ml tubes, 12 x 0.5 ml tubes or one 48-well microplate.
- Ability to program and maintain a 16 ̊C temperature gradient, front-to-back, along the block for protocol optimization in a single run.
- Integrated hot Bonnet® heated lid for oil-free thermal cycling. The heated lid pressure may be manually adjusted to permit the seating of different vessels.
- Intuitive software with an easy-to-read interface for rapid input of programs, which may contain advanced protocol steps such as auto-time extension, auto-temperature increment, and variable ramp rates.
- The choice of calculated sample temperature control for highest speed and accuracy or block control for compatibility with protocols designed for a variety of instrument types.
A space-saving design for easy setup and transportation. Instant incubate feature for continuous-temperature incubations. Customizable factory-installed protocols.
