Tradition Meets Innovation
Analytik Jena can look back on a long tradition of developing high-quality, highly precise analytical systems. The Biometra thermal cyclers stand for high-performance sample blocks. Amplification results are always excellent and reliable with ideal reproducibility.
The Biometra thermal cycler family offers a range of high-quality models to meet individual user needs. All models can also be controlled and monitored live from the desk via the optional Biometra TSuite thermal cycler management software.
Users looking for a premium system will find their desired device in the Biometra TAdvanced. The flexible high-quality thermal cycler with the block quick-change system and 12 different block modules, blocks for 0.2 mL tubes/plates, 0.5 mL tubes and 384 well plates. High heating rates of up to 6 °C/s in aluminum blocks and up to 8 °C/s in silver blocks can be achieved due to optimal temperature control. An extended user management offers individual user rights for up to 90 users.
