Thermal cyclers in their prime

The Techne thermal cycler range, available from Bibby Scientific, has been redesigned to provide easier programming and increased instrument flexibility. All Prime models have an enhanced thermal engine, a colour touch interface and preprogrammed protocol templates.

3Prime is 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 research and teaching laboratories. 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 that is ideal for all routine polymerase chain reaction (PCR) needs. Both 3PrimeG and PrimeG have gradient functionality as standard, while the 3PrimeX and Prime units introduce a special facility to add gradient capability through a simple USB upgrade, without the need to change a block.
