RT-PCR machine must generate a thermal gradient across the 96-well reaction block to support rapid optimization of real-time PCR assays. It must be compatible with many fluorescent technologies for real-time PCR amplification. It needs to capture up to five fluorophores in a single reaction well. It should include software that supports data acquisition, viewing, and analysis of data generated by the system and that supports real-time PCR applications such as PCR quantification, melt curve analysis, end point analysis, allelic discrimination, and gene expression analysis.
Detailed requirements:
Real-time data traces must be able to be viewed during a run from the thermal cycler base or if a computer is connected to the instrument. System must be able to detect a 1.3-fold change in gene expression. System must be capable of a thermal gradient that enables optimization of multiple temperatures in a single assay. Thermal block must have operational range of 4-100°C. Sample block temperature must have accuracy of +/-0.2°C of programmed target at 90°C, with a uniformity of +/-0.3°C well-to-well within 10 seconds of arrival at 90°C. An optical system that al...
