MSE PRO™ Gradient Thermal Cycler, 96-well
Gradient thermal cyclers, also known as gradient PCR machines, are used in the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) process. PCR is a technique used to amplify specific DNA sequences, allowing researchers to generate large amounts of DNA from a small starting sample. Gradient thermal cyclers allow for a temperature gradient to be established across the samples, which means that different regions of the thermal cycler block can be set at different temperatures simultaneously. This gradient feature enables researchers to optimize PCR conditions more efficiently and quickly.
