Applied Biosystems QuantStudio 12K Flex AccuFill Real-Time PCR System for High-Throughput Genetic Analysis

The Applied Biosystems QuantStudio 12K Flex AccuFill System 4471021 is a real-time PCR (qPCR) platform engineered for high-throughput molecular biology research, critical in biotechnology and clinical diagnostics. Its design supports a variety of sample formats including OpenArray plates, TaqMan array cards, 96-well, FAST 96-well, and 384-well plates, enabling flexible workflow integration essential for gene expression profiling, SNP genotyping, and protein analysis applications.

Key technical features include:

• Enhanced OptiFlex System for precise fluorescence detection, improving sensitivity and data accuracy in quantitative PCR assays.
• High data throughput capacity capable of collecting up to 12,000 data points per run, facilitating extensive bioprocessing and molecular diagnostics workflows.
• An integrative touch-screen software interface supporting ExpressionSuite v1.0 and Genotyper v1.1 for streamlined protocol setup and data analysis, widely adopted in synthetic biology and molecular cloning workflows.
• Compact dimensions (66 cm L x 79 cm W x 55 cm H) with robust construction weighing approximately 90 kg, designed for benchtop laboratory environments.

This system is vital for researchers specializing in biotechnology fields such as gene editing, molecular diagnostics, and biopharmaceutical production pipelines. While removed from a working lab, the unit powers on but exhibits a startup error preventing full initialization; no functional testing was completed and software/accessories are not included. It remains a powerful solution for labs focused on high-throughput genetic analysis and biomanufacturing workflows where qPCR precision and flexibility are critical.
