Real-time PCR-system Prime Pro 48

The new Prime Pro 48 real time PCR system from Techne (UK) is a high specification, economically priced real-time thermocycler. The Prime Pro 48 system has a unique high thermal block uniformity (± 0.1°C). This uniformity as well as validated sample volumes of down to 5µl enable an optimized reaction run time for 40 cycles down to only 15 minutes. The uniform temperature across the plate is achieved with a unique heating and cooling system that quickly enables a uniform temperature of ±0.1°C in every well of the block within a fraction of a second of reaching each well temperature. This high uniformity eliminates the need for triplicates which reduces reagent running costs. Prime Pro 48 accommodates a unique and economical 48-well PCR plate, the size of which is only 1/8 the size of a standard 96-well plate. The well format mirrors a 384-well plate therefore allowing the use of a 16-channel micropipette. The small plate cuts reagent costs in half whilst still producing a strong fluorescent signal. Applications include e.g. absolute and relative quantification, Allelic Discrimination and High Resolution Melt.

Features:

  • Validated volume per well: 5 to 20 µl
  • High temperature uniformity of ±0.1°C across the whole block instantly after every temperature change
  • 40 cycles in 40 minutes before optimization, and down to only 15 minutes when optimized
  • Genotype in 4 minutes with over 99% accuracy
  • Patented “Adaptive LED Control” minimizes optical artifacts and prevents premature detector saturation
