MJ Research PTC-100 PCR Thermal Cycler

The MJ Research PTC-100 PCR Thermal Cycler is a robust and reliable instrument designed to meet diverse temperature configuration needs in the laboratory setting. This second-hand system is available in configurations accommodating either 96-well or 60-well microplates and features a heated lid for oil-free operation. The integrated Hot Bonnet heated lid includes a convenient thumbwheel for adjusting height and pressure, ensuring the secure sealing of reaction vessels and microplates during thermal cycling.

Equipped with precise Peltier-effect heat pumps, the PTC-100 is engineered to endure the demands of repeated cycling, with the capacity to cycle any temperature sequence up to 10,000 times. Its NIST-traceable calibration feature allows for accurate incubation and the long-term storage of materials at any specified temperature. This capability also facilitates the preservation of results following unsupervised runs.

Data management with the MJ Research PTC-100 is both secure and user-friendly, with storage for approximately 320 programs and 14 pre-programmed protocols. The cycler accommodates variable ramping rates, providing flexibility in experimental design. Additionally, the PTC-100's power-failure protection feature ensures the integrity of data, safeguarding it for up to twelve hours in the event of power interruptions.
