BIO-RAD ICYCLER IQ5 MULTICOLOR REAL TIME PCR

The iQ5 real-time PCR detection system offers a fresh design for Bio-Rad’s new generation of real-time PCR instrumentation. Like its predecessors, the iCycler iQ and MyiQ systems, the iQ5 optical system is a modular upgrade to the iCycler thermal cycler with a 96-well reaction block. This powerful new system offers five-target analysis capabilities for multiplex PCR, coupled with a completely redesigned software package.

KEY FEATURES

• Multiplexing of up to 5 fluorophores in each reaction vessel conserves precious samples and reagents
• Real-time PCR thermal gradient enables simple, rapid assay optimization
• Diverse data analysis and presentation options provide a comprehensive view of your assay results
• Advanced gene expression analysis methods with publication-quality statistics and graphs for relative quantitation studies
• A flexible allelic discrimination module allows easy-to-use, automatic sample identification in genotyping experiments
• Embedded tools for end-point fluorescence analysis enable simple qualitative analysis of sample abundance in single- or multicolor assays
• Robust, reliable thermal cycling performance delivered by the iCycler thermal cycler
