| FIVE MULTIPLEXING |
|
| Measure changes in gene expression, detect and quantitate pathogens, and perform allelic discrimination (SNP genotyping) assays. You can also confirm the presence or absence of a transgene, or other specific target sequence. To facilitate some of these applications, Bioneer provides preformulated, ready-to-use and quality-tested TaqMan¢ç assay for use with the Exicycler¢â 96. Now you can reduce your assay optimization efforts. |
| |
| HIGH THROUGHPUT |
|
Exicycler¢â 96 conveys the latest generation Peltier-base thermal cycling system, which makes you use both standard 96-well plates and 0.2ml tubes. So, with Exicycler¢â 96, you can process high throughput of samples in 96-well plates and can detect fluorescence of 96 samples simultaneously.
Also, sophisticated and versatile platforms for users requiring extended capabilities feature a unique optical system that give homogeneity by effectively minimizing fluorescence differences illuminated on each well. Therefore, the thermal gradient function makes uniform and exquisite.
Five (5) pairs of optical configuration support a broader range of fluorophores. Precision optics and charge-coupled device (CCD) camera, plus a sophisticated multi-componenting algorithm is capable superior accuracy, reproducibility and reliability with no need for hard ware changes to access new dyes.
This feature enables to be compatible with a robotic instrument and automatic preparation equipment with Exicycler¢â 96¡¯s automated door opening capability. |

| |
| USER FRIENDLY GUI SOFTWARE |
|
| Exicycler¢â 96 features the intuitive graphic use interface (GUI)-based software offers ease of use and functionality, including plate set up wizards guide you through all aspects of experimental set-up for even complicated multiplex assays, including the use of multiple standard curves on a single plate. The real time monitoring feature allows you to watch PCR amplification as it happens. Data analysis is simplified with built-in tools such as auto-baseline, auto-threshold, and SNP auto-calling. Besides, advance data viewing features allow you to visualize, report, and understand your datasets. |
