Real-time PCR system with 4-channel fluorescence, 96-well capacity, Peltier heating, and 10.4-in touch panel PC interface.
CronoTech CronoSTAR 96 is a benchtop real-time PCR thermal cycler widely used in molecular diagnostics and biotechnology research. It features a 4-channel LED fluorescence detection system supporting dyes such as FAM, VIC, ROX, and Cy5, enabling multiplex quantitative PCR assays essential for gene expression analysis, molecular cloning workflows, and molecular diagnostics. The system accommodates 96 samples simultaneously in 0.2 mL tubes or 96-well plates with reaction volumes from 25 to 50 μL, supporting a wide range of experimental designs common in bioprocessing and synthetic biology.
The Peltier-based heating and cooling system offers fast ramp rates (heating at 5.5 °C/s and cooling at 4.4 °C/s) with tight temperature accuracy (≤0.2 °C) and uniformity (≤0.8 °C), critical for reproducible amplification and melt curve analysis. The integrated 10.4-inch touch panel PC interface facilitates protocol setup and real-time data monitoring, supporting efficient workflows in clinical diagnostics and biopharmaceutical production pipelines.
This unit is sold as a used instrument, provided as-is without guaranteed original factory performance, suitable for laboratories seeking affordable options for real-time quantitative PCR applications in cell imaging, molecular biology research, and gene editing experiments.
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.
