MultiGene 2
Thermal Cycler
MultiGene™ II Personal Thermal Cycler
Making advanced thermal cycling technology affordable
The three elements required for a good thermal
cycler are reliable performance, a fast uniform block and user
friendly software. The MultiGene II combines a versatile and precise
cycling unit with easy to use software to make it an outstanding
personal thermal cycler. Not limited to the amplification of nucleic
acids, the unit is also useful for applications such as enzymatic
digestion, ligation, and other procedures that require incubation of
small samples in a temperature controlled environment.
|
| Combining simplicity with performance, the MultiGene
II features straightfoward and familiar programming with proven
cycling technology in a modern molded housing. The compact design of
the unit conserves bench space and allows it to be easily moved to
different locations, such as under a biological hood, or stored out
of the way when not being used. |
 |
| Small enough to be considered a personal thermal
cycler, the MultiGene II is supplied with either a 25 x 0.2ml tube
block or a 16 x 0.5ml block. Heating and cooling are accomplished
electronically by Peltier units. Uniformity across the block is
±0.4ºC at 55°C, ensuring that all samples are exposed to the same
temperature conditions. Block heating and cooling are driven by an
algorithm that accurately simulates sample temperature. The
MultiGene II is supplied with a heated lid for oil-free cycling. For
applications where the heated lid is not required, it can be turned
off. |
 |
| Cycling parameters are entered using the convenient
numerical keypad. Programs can be run immediately upon entering, or
up to 99 programs can be saved to the memory for later use. In
addition to the standard parameters of time and temperature, the
software also allows for successive time and temperature increments
and decrements (for touchdown amplification and auto-extension),
auto-restart after a power failure, end of cycling elongation steps
and extended period soaks at 4ºC. The cycler can also be used for
holding specific temperatures, allowing it to take the place of a
traditional water bath, heat block or incubator. |
