Description
The Bio-Rad T100 Thermal Cycler is a compact, reliable PCR thermal cycler designed to deliver a comprehensive set of convenient features in a remarkably small footprint. It’s widely used across both academic and industrial research labs as a dependable PCR workhorse, offering an intuitive color touch screen for easy programming and a graphical protocol editor that displays an editable thermal profile of the PCR run. Its thermal gradient technology allows users to quickly optimize PCR reactions in a single run rather than needing multiple separate trials, and the 96-well block accommodates standard PCR tubes, tube strips, and plates, with a self-adjusting heated lid that automatically fits varying labware heights. Known for its robust, long-lasting design, the T100 delivers consistent, effective performance run after run, making it a popular choice for both classroom teaching environments and professional research labs alike.
