The Cepheid SmartCycler II is a modular Real Time PCR system. The optical system of the unit is centered around the I-CORE, a solid state module which does not require warm up, maintenance, or normalization dye. This random access instrument features 16 reaction sites, each of which can be run with a different protocol. The system can also be upgraded with as many as six blocks (16 sites each), providing 96 wells for optimal productivity. Reaction sites are optically and thermally calibrated to ensure accuracy and reproducibility and results are produced in an average time of 20 to 40 minutes, making this system both precise as well as efficient. For added flexibility, the SmartCycler II allows for multiuser operation without having to batch reaction samples, and previous runs can be analyzed while the system is still being used.Manufactures Specification Run multiple protocols simultaneously and compare results on a single graphMelt curve analysis of reactions using intercalating dyes and hybridization probesMonitor and compare two runs simultaneouslyEasily set up or import standard curves to quantify unknown samplesSoak Time Programmable in minutes and seconds, up to 60 minutesAdjustable ramp rates for easy optimizationSave graphs and screens as JPEG filesAutomatic export of data to ExcelCustomize graphs to display up to 4 channels on a single graphMultiple users can start different runs back to backView and print data while runs are in progressRun hybridization probe and intercalating dye chemistries at the same timeAdditional Prep Fees May Apply
