The TC-1000G is a 96-well gradient thermal cycler used in molecular biology for DNA amplification, cloning, and gene sequencing. Its gradient capability allows researchers to test different annealing temperatures simultaneously in a single run, optimizing primer binding efficiently.
Core Specifications
- Sample Capacity: 96 x 0.2 mL tubes, 12 x 8-well strips, or one 96-well PCR plate
- Heating/Cooling Rate: Up to 5°C/sec
- Block Temperature Range: 4 – 105°C (varies slightly by specific manufacturer)
- Gradient Range: 1 – 42°C (Spread across the block)
- Heated Lid: Adjustable temperature range (30 – 110°C or 30 – 115°C) to prevent sample evaporation and condensation.
