When the first thermal cyclers for the polymerase chain reaction came out in the 1980s, they were as expensive as a market driven by grant money could make them. Things haven’t got much better over ...

Consistent DNA amplification is the cornerstone of high-precision Droplet Digital PCR (ddPCR). High-performance thermal cyclers must deliver uniform temperature control and reproducibility to maintain ...

One such niche is real-time thermocyclers, previously reviewed in The Scientist. 2 These cyclers permit researchers to monitor the thermal and optical properties of their reactions in real time, and ...

The PTC Tempo Thermal Cycler represents the next generation of conventional PCR thermal cyclers from Bio-Rad. Engineered to maintain thermal performance that delivers accurate results, the PTC Tempo ...

In order to compare various thermal cycler speeds, it is not enough to take into account only the heating ramp rate and cooling ramp rate available in the technical specifications, as these data do ...

Two companies aim to make PCR and its need for thermal cycling instrumentation obsolete. Last year, EnviroLogix and Douglas Scientific signed a collaborative agreement to develop and optimize ...

In May 1983, Kary Mullis, a young technician working for the Cetus Corporation, sat with idle hands and a busy mind. The laboratory he worked in was attempting to study DNA mutations linked to sickle ...
