PCRmax® Alpha Cyclers
Easily create, modify and access programs, saving time.
- Flexible—your choice of one, two, or four block capacities in 96-well, 384-well, or mixed formats
- Independently control each block for simplified temperature and space optimization
- Software allows quick access to commonly used protocols
These compact thermal cyclers deliver reproducible results every run—with little to no training needed. Features include a clear responsive touch screen, secure user-specific programming, adjustable heated lid, and active sample cooling for sharper amplification.
A Program Wizard generates a protocol specific to your sequence in seconds—a quick way to optimise new assays. Units also retain approximately 1000 reports for reviewing at a later date and run on an intuitive, HD Android™ tablet interface. Save your personal settings to your USB drive; sign in is as simple as inserting your USB drive, no password needed.
