The Techne ³PrimeX delivers all the features of the ³PrimeX instrument but with an expanded sample capacity, accommodating 48 x 0.2ml microtubes, 30 x 0.5ml tubes plus half a 96 well plate in a horizontal format. Design flexibility allows the unit to be upgraded to included gradient cycling capability.

The Techne ³PrimeX is a small gradient thermal cycler that builds on all the features of the ³PrimeX instrument. The 48 well block format offers eight columns for annealing temperature optimization and six rows for optimizing reagents such as MgCl2 and primer concentrations. Annealing temperatures can be optimized over 14°C between temperatures 30°C to 80°C. The gradient calculator function displays the temperature for each of the eight columns, ensuring easy replication of thermal conditions.

Techne have completely upgraded their established thermal cyclers to become the most feature rich range of instruments on the market. The Techne ³PrimeX Themal Cycler range provides an unrivalled user experience because each unit, from the Techne ³PrimeX Thermal Cycler right up to the full size PrimeG instrument feature a full color touchscreen and intuitive user interface.

The Techne ³PrimeX range of thermal cyclers are also designed to provide easy programming. Pre-installed templates allow the user to quickly create even the most complicated programs via the intuitive touch interface. All Prime thermal cyclers have the ability to transfer programs between instruments via USB or to your PC. The internal memory can hold 1000 programs with unlimited storage available on USB data stick.

A new and unique feature of the Techne ³PrimeX range of thermal cyclers is the ability to upgrade any non-gradient thermal cycler into a gradient machine quickly and simply, without any hardware change necessary. This adds significant flexibility, allows the thermal cycler to be future-proof, and helps users spread the cost of owning a gradient thermal cycler.

The Techne ³PrimeX range of thermal cyclers are among the most reliable thermal cyclers on the market, backed up by a huge 4 year warranty, which is the best in the industrys.
