Applied Biosystems StepOnePlus Real-Time PCR System

The Applied Biosystems StepOnePlus Real-Time PCR System is an advanced 96-well Real-Time PCR device tailored for both novice and seasoned researchers in genomic applications. This instrument features configuration versatility and is ready to use straight from the box, equipped with intuitive data analysis and control software. It uses a durable LED-based 4-color optical recording system designed for precise quantitative Real-Time PCR results.

This system's sophisticated software and instrumentation accommodate various genomic assays, and its sensitive optical LED recording adapts to both beginner and advanced users alike through an intuitive interface. The system's comprehensive software, compatible with Windows XP, offers comprehensive control, data collection, and analysis. The StepOnePlus System facilitates streamlined assay setup with an LCD touchscreen and user-centric interface, guiding users through experiments efficiently.

The device supports rapid, simple assay initiation with quick-start setup options, allowing delayed plate data entry. Its LED-based fluorescence reading encompasses FAM/SYBR Green, VIC/JOE, NED/TAMRA, and ROX dyes, providing precise quantitative data through cost-effective means. It reliably distinguishes between 2 populations of 5,000 and 10,000 template copies in TaqMan assays with a 99.7% confidence rate.

The StepOnePlus System is versatile across numerous real-time PCR applications, including SNP Genotyping, Gene, MicroRNA, and Protein Expression Analysis, Translocation Analysis, Gene Detection, and Viral Load Analysis. Supported methods of analysis include Standard Curve (absolute quantitation), Relative Standard Curve, Comparative Ct (ΔΔCt) (relative quantitation), Genotyping, Presence/Absence, Melt Curve Analysis, and High-Resolution Melting.
