Dual Block Thermal Cycler NDBTC-101 offers a capacity of 48 × 0.2 ml wells plus 30 × 0.5 ml wells for diverse PCR formats. It operates within a 0 to 105 °C range, supporting varied thermal cycling needs. This unit uses a reinforced anodized aluminum heating module for efficient heat transfer and durability. It achieves a maximum ramping rate of 5 °C/s for rapid cycling. Our thermal cycler includes three-tier user login management with password protection for secure access.
FAQ for Dual Block Thermal Cycler NDBTC-101
1: Can different PCR programs run at the same time?
Two different PCR programs can run simultaneously thanks to the dual-block independent control. This feature enhances efficiency and allows direct comparison between protocols in a single run.
2: Is remote monitoring and control possible?
The Dual Block Thermal Cycler can be managed and monitored remotely via a mobile app or PC software using the built-in Wi-Fi. This enables convenient experiment oversight without being physically present in the lab.
3: How does the Dual Block Thermal Cycler NDBTC-101 prevent sample evaporation?
An adjustable hot lid with pressure protection accommodates various tube heights and prevents evaporation or tube melting. This design helps maintain sample integrity throughout the run.
4: How can the anodized aluminum heating module be maintained?
The module surface should be gently wiped with a clean, soft cloth after use to remove any residue. Abrasive cleaners or sharp tools should be avoided to prevent scratches and preserve heat conduction efficiency.
5: How should the Dual Block Thermal Cycler NDBTC-101 be stored when not in use for long periods?
The thermal cycler should be covered to protect it from dust, disconnected from the power supply, and stored in a cool, dry location. This practice preserves both the electronics and mechanical components.
6: Does the Multi-Block Thermal Cycler support remote monitoring or data management?
Our Multi-Block Thermal Cyclers offer data storage options and connectivity through USB or network interfaces. This allows easy backup of protocols and remote monitoring for convenient experiment management.
7: Is the Multi-Block Thermal Cycler compatible with standard PCR consumables?
Yes, our Multi-Block Thermal Cycler supports commonly used tubes, strips, and microplates, ensuring compatibility with most existing laboratory supplies. This avoids the need for specialized consumables and reduces overall costs.
8: What maintenance is required for the Multi-Block Thermal Cycler?
Routine maintenance includes cleaning the blocks and ensuring the lid seals properly. Periodic calibration and software updates help maintain accuracy and performance over time.
9: How energy efficient is the Multi-Block Thermal Cycler?
Our Multi-Block Thermal Cyclers feature energy-saving modes that reduce power consumption during idle periods without affecting performance. This helps lower operating costs in busy laboratories.
