High-Throughput Triple-Block Gradient PCR Thermal Cycler
TurboCycler 3 is the most powerful high-throughput PCR thermal cycler in its class. Run 3 independent experiments (3x48 samples) simultaneously with unmatched flexibility. Fast gradient optimization and advanced ramp rate control tailor PCR conditions for maximized efficiency. These features unite to boost your research throughput.
Features
Triple-Block Flexibility
Three distinct PCR protocols can be run at the same time, perfect for multi-user environments and diverse experiments with low samples.
High-Throughput Efficiency
Maximize throughput with up to 3 x 48 x 0.1/0.2 ml samples.
Fast Gradient Optimization
PCR conditions across the three independent blocks are easily adjusted and range from 30 to 100 °C with a maximum span of 30 °C.
Advanced Ramp Rate Control
Ramp rate can be adjusted from 0.1 to 5.0 °C/sec, to accommodate different assays including CRISPR-related experiments.
Intuitive Operation
Effortless programming on a large 10.1” color touch screen with a user-friendly interface.
Continuous Reliability: Zero Downtime
Each of the three independent block modules can be independently calibrated to ensure uninterrupted operation during maintenance.
Industry-first 8-zone gradient
Precise 8-zone temperature optimization per block, accelerating protocol development for research labs and reagent manufacturing.
Continuous Reliability
Independent blocks ensure uninterrupted operation during maintenance.
