Gradient thermal cycler Labcycler 48s

48-wellaluminumcompact

Labcycler 48s has a gold coated silver block with 48 wells for 0.2 ml tubes in an array of 6 x 8. The thermal conductivity of silver with 429 W/mK resulted in a better block uniformity in contrast to aluminum (237 W/mK). Working with single tubes and stripes is possible. The gold coated silver block results in high cooling and heating rates: 5.0°/s during real operations. A coloured touchscreen and a well-known graphical user interface results in an easy to use handling. 680 programs can be stored in directories that can be optionally protected by passwords. The Labcycler 48s has programmable temperatures and time in(de)crements, ramp rates and of course a gradient. A cheaper version without gradient function is available. SensoQuest offers two version: Labcycler 48s without Gradient and Labcycler 48 Gradient. Gradient: Up to ± 10 °C from the centre of the block, this means 20 °C from left to right.
