Real-time PCR system with 96-sample capacity, 4-channel LED fluorescence detection, and precise temperature control.
The Takara Bio CronoSTAR 96 Real-Time PCR System is a high-performance molecular diagnostics instrument designed for precise gene expression analysis and quantitative PCR applications. Equipped with a Peltier element heating/cooling system, it delivers rapid thermal cycling with a maximum heating rate of 5.5 °C/s and cooling rate of 4.4 °C/s, ensuring reliable amplification results essential in molecular diagnostics, biotechnology, and gene editing workflows.
This system supports simultaneous analysis of 96 samples using 0.2 mL tubes or 96-well plates, accommodating reaction volumes up to 50 µL, enhancing throughput for bioprocessing and synthetic biology research. The integrated 4-channel LED fluorescence detection covers FAM/TB Green, VIC/HEX/TET/JOE, ROX/Texas Red, and Cy5 dyes, enabling multiplex assays with photodiode-based detection for enhanced sensitivity and accuracy.
The instrument features a built-in 10.4-inch touch panel interface and includes a PC for data acquisition and control. Precise temperature control with accuracy ≤0.2 °C and uniformity ≤0.8 °C supports melting curve analysis for genotyping and mutation detection. This unit is used and sold as-is; performance may vary from the original factory specifications.
This real-time PCR platform is widely adopted among molecular biology researchers, critical in biopharmaceutical production pipelines, and essential for gene expression quantification in clinical diagnostics and biomanufacturing environments.
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.
Yes. Every verified supplier states which service partners cover the instrument, and we list that 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.
