Technical characteristics of the real-time PCR machine "ANK"

Machines ANK are characterized by:

  • DNA/RNA quantitation from a single to 109 copies
  • up to five-colours fluorescence detection, possibility of detecting a great number of fluorescent dyes - SYBR Green I, FAM, R 6 G, HEX, JOE, ROX, TAMRA, Cy 5 and others
  • possibility of multiplex PCR design
  • high sensitivity of all detection channels, which allows working with down to 0,5 pico-mole probes per reaction
  • user-friendly, convenient software, modern algorithms of threshold cycles calculation and ability to choose variants of data analysis
  • reduction of contamination risk, time saving, simplification of PCR-laboratory organization
