FAQ for Gradient Thermal Cycler
1: Can I run different sample sizes with this Gradient Thermal Cycler?
Yes, the Labnics Gradient Thermal Cycler supports various sample capacities, which is perfect for both small-scale and high-throughput experiments. You can use different formats, like 0.2 mL tubes and 96-well plates, depending on the project. This flexibility makes it very versatile in the lab.
2: Can I monitor the status of my PCR run in real-time?
Yes, our Gradient Thermal Cycler provides real-time status updates via the touchscreen interface, so you can check the progress of your run at any time. It shows detailed information such as current cycle, temperature profile, and estimated time to completion. This feature ensures that you are always aware of how your experiment is progressing.
3: Are there any routine checks I should perform on the Gradient Thermal Cycler?
It is recommended to routinely inspect the thermal cycler for any signs of wear or damage, especially the hot lid and temperature sensors. Check for consistent temperature readings and ensure all software settings are correct before starting an experiment.
4: Can the Gradient Thermal Cycler be used for high-throughput applications?
Yes, it is well-suited for high-throughput workflows due to its ability to handle multiple samples simultaneously in different formats, including 96-well and 384-well plates. This makes it perfect for labs that need to process large numbers of samples in one batch while maintaining precise temperature control.
