Real-Time PCR instrument with 96-well capacity, precise thermal control, 4-channel fluorescence for molecular diagnostics.
The Clontech ChronoSTAR 96 Real-Time PCR System is a high-precision molecular diagnostics instrument widely used in biotechnology and molecular biology laboratories. It features a 96-sample capacity suitable for qPCR applications including gene expression analysis, molecular cloning, and bioprocessing workflows. The system employs a Peltier-based thermal cycler enabling rapid temperature cycling with a maximum heating rate of 5.5 °C/s and cooling rate of 4.4 °C/s, ensuring efficient amplification cycles. Its temperature control provides outstanding stability with an accuracy of ≤ 0.15 °C and uniformity ≤ 0.8 °C, essential for reliable and reproducible results.
Equipped with a 4-channel fluorescence detection system (FAM/TB Green, VIC/HEX/TET/JOE, ROX/Texas Red, Cy5), the instrument supports multiplex assays commonly used in molecular diagnostics, gene editing validation, and synthetic biology research. Fluorescence is detected by photodiodes, enabling sensitive quantitative detection and melt curve analysis for amplicon specificity verification.
The system’s built-in 10.4-inch touchscreen user interface allows intuitive operation and protocol customization. It is compatible with standard 0.2 mL reaction tubes and 96-well plates with recommended reaction volumes of 25 µL (maximum 50 µL), making it compatible with diverse experimental workflows. This system is essential for research in biotechnology, molecular biology, and clinical diagnostics, supporting cutting-edge applications in biomanufacturing pipelines and molecular cloning workflows. Please note, this is a used unit sold as-is; confirm operational status prior to purchase.
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.
