CEPHEID SMARTCYCLER PROCESSING BLOCK (P/N: 900-0017)
Up to 96 independently programmable reaction sites delivers maximum flexibility. Up to 96 different cycling protocols can be performed simultaneously in one system. Multiple experimental runs can be started at different times, allowing several operators to use the system concurrently.
Rapid, precise heating and cooling of the reaction mixture to target temperatures significantly reduces cycling protocol times. The SmartCycler System's combined fast thermal ramp rates and real-time detection greatly reduce the total time required to carry out an experiment. Additionally, the ability to perform multiple cycling protocols simultaneously, and to detect multiple targets in a single run, increases lab productivity.
The SmartCycler System software optically monitors each reaction site as the fluorescent signals develop. Growth curves are displayed in real time as amplification occurs, and the presence of amplified product is confirmed when the fluorescent signal crosses a user-determined threshold.
Multiplex assays allow the detection of several targets within a single sample. The use of multiple fluorescent dyes permits detection of signal in up to four channels at one time on the SmartCycler system.
Various detection chemistries can be used with the SmartCycler optics, including TaqMan and Molecular Beacons probes, Amplifluor and Scorpion primers, and intercalating dyes.
The modular nature of the SmartCycler System gives laboratories a great deal of flexibility to meet varying workload demands. System capacity can be easily and cost-effectively upgraded in multiples of 16 module units.
