Description

The new TProfessional TRIO Thermocycler is a unique instrument providing three independent blocks and heated lids in one housing. The multiblock technology allows three different independent protocols to be run in parallel.

The TProfessional TRIO offers high throughput in parallel operation (up to 144 x 0.2 ml samples) in combination with the flexibility to run different protocols. This makes the TProfessional TRIO Thermocycler the perfect instrument for labs that need both high flexibility and frequent optimisation of new PCR protocols.

To find the optimal annealing temperature of new primers the TProfessional TRIO offers the new Temperature Optimisation Step function. It makes use of the three blocks, providing different annealing temperatures in a gradient-like fashion. Just enter the annealing temperature for the central block and an increment, defining the temperature difference for the left and right block. For maximum ease of use programs containing Temperature Optimisation Steps automatically start on all three blocks, there is no need to start and stop the blocks individually.

By the elegant housing with improved air stream design and the complete new hardware architecture the TProfessional TRIO achieves higher heating and cooling rates. High ramping rates provide both short experimental times and increased specificity. The airstream is guided to efficiently cool all sources of heat emission and is exhausted to the rear. Therefore the instruments can be placed directly side by side. In combination with the compact footprint of only 30 cm x 38 cm valuable bench space is saved.
