Applied Biosystems GeneAmp 9700 96-Well Conventional Thermal Cycler with Aluminum Sample Block

The Applied Biosystems GeneAmp 9700 is a conventional PCR thermal cycler designed for nucleic acid amplification and cycle sequencing. This configuration includes a 96-well, 0.2 mL aluminum sample block module with an integrated heated lid.

• Interchangeable sample block modules support different throughput and well-volume requirements.
• The 96-well module uses a conventional 8 × 12 well format.
• Supports 9600 emulation mode and standard mode.
• Graphical user interface provides protocol programming and real-time display.
• Plate ejection system simplifies removal of 96-well plates after cycling.
• Fully loaded, the instrument accommodates up to 192 samples per run.
• Compatible with Applied Biosystems MicroAmp disposables.
• Suitable for routine PCR, cycle sequencing, molecular biology, biotechnology, and nucleic acid amplification workflows.
• Optional networking software can enable centralized control of up to 31 instruments.
