Eppendorf Mastercycler X50a Thermal Cycler

EPPENDORF MASTERCYCLER X50a

The Eppendorf Mastercycler X50a Thermal Cycler combines speed, flexibility and PCR optimization for research PCR applications and standardization for routine PCR applications such as food testing. A highly intuitive touch screen puts all these benefits at your fingertips.

Speed and enhanced PCR optimization functions, like the 2D-Gradient, make the Eppendorf Mastercycler X50a Thermocycler the ideal PCR cycler for advanced research in molecular biology. The excellent block temperature regulation gives rise to the next stage of PCR reproducibility, whereas the adaptable user management and profound documentation capabilities give peace of mind to laboratories working to specific or strict standards.

A highly intuitive touch display, low noise levels, low power consumption and the versatile flexlid concept combine to make a powerful PCR cycler. Up to 10 PCR cyclers can be combined – ideal for high throughput applications or labs with a high number of users running different assays. Should you feel you need more flexibility or throughput, up to 50 PCR cyclers can be combined in a computer-controlled network.

The Eppendorf Mastercycler X50a Thermal Cycler, replacing the Eppendorf Mastercycler Pro line, is the elegant synthesis of speed, flexibility and PCR optimization for research PCR applications and standardization for routine PCR applications such as food testing etc. A new highly intuitive touch screen concept puts all of those benefits always at your fingertips.

Speed and enhanced PCR optimization functions like the 2D-Gradient make the Mastercycler X50a the ideal PCR cycler for advanced research in molecular biology. The excellent block temperature regulation gives rise to the next stage of PCR reproducibility, whereas the adaptable user management and profound documentation capabilities give peace of mind to laboratories working to set standards.

PCR Optimization of ß-actin Gene with 2D-Gradient technique

2D-Gradient allows you to optimize both the denaturation temperature (bottom to top) and the annealing temperature (left to right) during the same run. Higher denaturation temperatures can have the advantage of increased specificity while lower denaturation temperatures reduce stress on biomolecules and can lead to increased yield. Assays that struggle to work reliably at a 95° denaturation temperature could benefit significantly from the optimization of the denaturation temperature.

PCR should be faster. That gives you quicker results, throughout the day, and a faster transition to optimal temperatures. The Eppendorf Mastercycler X50a Thermal Cycler heats with 10°C/s and cools with 5°C/s. Make the speed of the Mastercycler X50a your research advantage
