Introduction
The Bioperfectus STC-96A Plus Real-Time PCR system is a more-than-ever flexible, efficient and reliable breakthrough in the real-time PCR analysis of gene expression and genetic variation. You now can apply TWO different PCR assays on just one instrument with separate-controlled programs.
Yet the STC-96A Plus temperature uniformity across 96 wells is within a remarkable 0.1℃, which meets all your needs for highly precise diagnostic and study use, including High-Resolution Melting Curve (HRM) applications.
