The Clontech CronoSTAR 96 Real-Time PCR System (model 640231) is a precise thermocycler designed for high-throughput quantitative PCR assays, essential in molecular diagnostics and biotechnology research. It supports 96 simultaneous reactions using 0.2 mL tubes or 96-well plates with a recommended reaction volume of 25 µL (up to 50 µL). Employing a Peltier element for thermal cycling, it achieves rapid temperature changes with a maximum heating rate of 5.5°C/sec and cooling rate of 4.4°C/sec, ensuring efficient amplification cycles.
Featuring four fluorescence detection channels—FAM/TB Green, VIC/HEX/TET/JOE, ROX/Texas Red, and Cy5—detected via photodiodes, this system enables multiplex assays and advanced gene expression analysis. Temperature control precision includes ±0.15°C accuracy and ≤0.8°C uniformity, critical for reproducible PCR results. The integrated 10.4-inch touch panel facilitates user-friendly operation and data management.
This real-time PCR instrument is widely used in molecular diagnostics, gene editing validation, synthetic biology, and bioprocessing workflows, making it a critical tool in biopharmaceutical production pipelines. Sold as a used unit without PC, it is offered in as-is condition, suitable for laboratories seeking a reliable PCR platform for routine and advanced qPCR applications.
Lab equipment markets are fragmented. Buyers spend weeks calling distributors, comparing quotes, and verifying supplier reliability. Sellers struggle to reach global research labs.
We built Questpair to fix this. Every supplier on the platform is verified before listing. Every quote you receive comes from a real, vetted seller. AI prepares your case in minutes, then a real specialist takes over.
We're an independent team based in The Netherlands, working with research labs and procurement teams across Europe and worldwide.
With a service contract, ten to fifteen years is normal for most benchtop instruments. Detectors and pumps are the parts that wear first.
Often, yes. Verified suppliers frequently work with service partners converting the instrument. If applicable, we can list servicing options alongside the offer.
Ask a scientist through the request button. Parts are often available even when the instrument itself is discontinued.
Two to six weeks, depending on refurbishment scope and whether calibration is included.
We ship to 38 countries. Crating and customs handling are quoted with the instrument.
Tell us what you need and a scientist finds it for you, usually within the hour.
