Stratagene Robocycler 96

The RoboCycler® temperature cycler is quite different in design than most traditional PCR machines. As such, it can be used with more applications than most other machines. The RoboCycler® has 4 temperature blocks. The first 3 blocks can be used for temperatures ranging from 25ºC to 99ºC, and Block 4 can be used for temperatures ranging from 6ºC to 25ºC. One of the blocks (Block 2) can even be programmed for a temperature gradient. This allows samples within the same run to be exposed to temperatures varying in the range of 45º to 99ºC or 35ºto 99ºC, depending on the model. Samples are moved from one block to the next via a rotating, robotic arm. Because of the movement from one temperature block to the next, it is not necessary for the machine to take time ramping like most PCR machines.

The Stratagene Robocycler 96 is an advanced thermal cycler designed to streamline polymerase chain reaction (PCR) workflows in molecular biology and genetics laboratories. With its innovative robotic arm and multi-block design, the Robocycler 96 ensures rapid and precise temperature transitions, reducing PCR run times while maintaining the accuracy and reproducibility required for sensitive DNA amplification protocols.

Key Features:

• 96-Well Capacity: The Robocycler 96 is equipped with a 96-well plate format, allowing for high-throughput PCR reactions. This makes it ideal for labs conducting large-scale experiments, from genotyping to cloning and gene expression analysis.

• Four Thermal Blocks for Precise Cycling: Unlike traditional thermal cyclers, the Robocycler features four separate thermal blocks for denaturation, annealing, extension, and a holding block, ensuring precise temperature control for each stage of the PCR cycle. The robotic arm moves the sample plate between the blocks, minimizing temperature transition times.

• Efficient PCR Cycling: The system’s block-to-block cycling reduces ramping times, providing faster and more uniform PCR amplification. This feature is particularly valuable in time-sensitive applications and for labs looking to maximize throughput.

• User-Friendly Interface: The Robocycler 96 features an easy-to-use control panel that allows for quick programming of PCR protocols, temperature settings, and cycling times. Its intuitive design makes it accessible to both novice and experienced users.

• Customizable Programs: Researchers can create, save, and edit PCR protocols, tailoring the system to specific applications, such as qPCR, cloning, or mutagenesis.

• Reliable Temperature Accuracy: The system’s thermal blocks ensure precise temperature control with minimal variation, maintaining consistent performance across all 96 wells.

• Durable Construction: Built with high-quality materials, the Stratagene Robocycler 96 is designed to withstand the rigors of daily use in a busy laboratory environment, ensuring long-lasting, dependable performance.

Applications:

• DNA Amplification: Ideal for amplifying DNA samples for various molecular biology techniques, including cloning, sequencing, and genotyping.

• Gene Expression Studies: Supports PCR-based assays to measure gene expression levels, including reverse transcription PCR (RT-PCR) and quantitative PCR (qPCR).

• Mutation Detection: The precise temperature control makes it suitable for mutation detection applications, such as single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) analysis or mutagenesis studies.

• High-Throughput Screening: With its 96-well capacity, the Robocycler 96 is an excellent tool for high-throughput PCR screening, facilitating rapid data generation in genomics and biotechnology research.
