Notice Title

6Plex 96-Well qPCR Instrument.

Notice Description

The ABI QuantStudio5 qPCR thermal cycler would be the best addition to the schools bank of equipment; I have looked at the other manufacturer's instruments and have based my selection on the following, unique and beneficial features of this instrument: * The instrument does 6plex, whereas the others are 5plex, this capability will also cover every probe that users may want to use (FAM(tm)/SYBR(tm) Green, VIC(tm)/JOE(tm)/HEX(tm)/TET(tm), ABY(tm)/NED(tm)/TAMRA(tm)/Cy(r)3, JUN(tm), ROX(tm)/Texas Red(tm), Mustang Purple(tm), Cy(r)5/LIZ(tm), Cy(r)5.5). * Has 6 independent temperature zones in the block which allows for faster and cheaper optimisation of new targets. * It's supplied with a laptop, which means users can download data while the instrument is running without risk of affecting other people's data, other instruments have in built systems. * The software is available without licence which means all users can download the software to their own computer to analyse their data on or off campus. * Software is compatible with PC and MAC. * The instrument is able to be calibrated by the user rather than having to be done by the manufacturer, this will reduce future service contract costs.
