TC-5000 - Gradient Thermal Cyclers Brochure

TC-5000 Thermal CyclerTC-5000 Thermal CyclerThe TC-5000 gradient thermal cycler enables you to optimize your experiments at the “touch of a screen”, with the same mechanical features of the TC-4000 (versatile block format, Quad Circuit Technology, flexible heated lid, etc).Graphical displayThe ‘real-time’ graphical display shows the sample temperature profile while the program is running, including the upper and lower limits of the gradient, allowing for instant visualization of your experiment’s status.TouchscreenThe TC-5000 incorporates a unique user-friendly programming interface provided by a 4.5 x 3.5” touch-sensitive screen.Wide linear gradientThe most linear 96-well gradient cycler on the market, with an amazing range of 30°C, allow-ing annealing temperatures to be optimized in a single experiment.Gradient calculatorThe gradient calculator function displays the temperature of each column of tubes. This en-sures replication of the experimental conditions.
