Mystaire® PCR Prep Stations

Compact laminar flow enclosures that reduce the risk of sample contamination while performing polymerase chain reaction experiments.

Airborne contaminants are prevented from entering into the work zone through constant positive pressure HEPA filtered air. Each PCR prep station is equipped with a built-in 254 nanometer shortwave lamp to effectively decontaminate the work area between amplifications. Safety interlocks are included on all PCR prep stations to prevent operator exposure to potentially harmful UV radiation.

MY-PCR prep stations are bench-top personal clean zones allowing the operator to amplify RNA and DNA while minimizing the potential for background from airborne contaminants.

*Note: MY-PCR and FE-PCR are not biological safety cabinets. They are designed to provide process protection only from potential airborne contaminants found in the laboratory space.

• Class 100 vertical laminar flow air
• 15-Minute UV light timer
• Clear polycarbonate construction with chemically impervious polypropylene work surface
• UV shelf with integrated pipette holder
• Electrical cord pass-through port
• Sash position switch and overlap to prevent UV light exposure

Speed - Fiber optic detection system scans 16 wells simultaneously
Durability - Tested reliability for over 1000 continuous runs
Connectivity - Easily export data via Wi-Fi, ethernet, USB or LAN
Capacity - 96-well format for semi-skirted or un-skirted plates and tubes
Thermal Performance - Marlow Peltier based block with 12 temperature gradient zones, ramp rates up to 6.0°C/sec

Sensitivity - Detect 2-fold differences in target quantities in singleplex reactions and up to 1 copy of amplified DNA, 10 logs of dynamic range

Competitor Q uses a single light source to excite all samples.

Differences in light path length lead to differences in excitation, which requires normalization. Though Competitor Q has said that they do not require normalization dyes, this is not reflected in the data as the data CV values for replicates is significantly higher.

Why doesn’t the Cielo™ require ROX dye?

 The Cielo does not require ROX dye because it uses in-well detection technology. The light path for excitation and reading emission are collimated directly into the well. As such, the light path length is always the same for each well, so there is no need to normalize for varying light path length. The data from the Cielo is consistently uniform and reproducible.

Specifications

*Other dyes/probes are possible depending on the system configuration.

Freedom Rocker™ BotBlot® 

The Freedom Rocker™ BlotBot® is an automated blot processor. The fully programmable blot processing station automates the tedious incubation and washing steps required to process blots and gels, thus saving time and money through increased productivity. All trays receive the same reagent or wash buffer at the same time, in equal volumes, ensuring consistency.

Simply dispense individual reagents (in volumes as low as 3.5 mL) into appropriate trays and recover them separately. This allows the conservation of primary antibodies. The control panel has a large graphic display and intuitive layout making it easy to program protocols. These protocols can include different rocking speeds and times for each step. 

BlotBot® with a clear window can be employed when using reagents that are not light-sensitive in western blots. BlotBot® with a blackout window is recommended when using fluorescent reagents in western blots to preserve their integrity.

• Automated delivery and removal of buffers/reagents
• Dispense and recover different antibodies or reagents in each tray
• Only 3.5 mL or reagent per blot is needed due to specially designed trays
• Reagent recovery
• Easy to use-just plug in
• Quiet, no air or vacuum connections necessary
• Drip-proof quick-release connections
• 2-year warranty
