Techne's thermal cycler range has been redesigned to provide easier programming and increased instrument flexibility.
All Prime models have an enhanced thermal engine, a colour touch interface and pre-programmed protocol templates.
3Prime is, according to the company, the most feature-packed personal thermal cycler on the market and the only entry-level instrument to offer programming via a touch interface.
Up to 1000 programs may be stored, and with rapid ramp rates and a small footprint this is the ideal instrument for both research and teaching labs.
3PrimeX and 3PrimeG are mid-sized cyclers that match all the features of the 3Prime instrument alongside expanded sample capacity and gradient cycling capability.
The Prime and PrimeG instruments are full-sized models with a versatile, fully interchangeable block system ideal for all routine PCR needs.
Both 3PrimeG and PrimeG have gradient functionality as standard, while the 3PrimeX and Prime units introduce a unique facility to add gradient capability through a simple USB upgrade, without the need to change a block.
