Gradient Thermal Cycler (PCR)

Gradient thermal cycler (PCR) is an essential equipment in molecular biology, genetics, biotechnology and molecular diagnostics laboratories. This device allows the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) process to be performed by precisely controlling temperature cycles; a process used to amplify DNA fragments in a short period of time. The temperature gradient feature in this device allows researchers to examine several different temperatures simultaneously in a single experiment. This feature is especially useful for optimizing the annealing temperature of primers and saves time and consumables. Gradient thermal cyclers usually have a digital display, easy programming of PCR cycles, uniform temperature control and high speed of temperature change, which makes the experiments more accurate and reliable. For this reason, this device is widely used in research centers, medical diagnostic laboratories, universities and bioindustries.
