Thermal Cycler/Fluorescence Detector

The MJ Research Opticon® 2 system combines the thermal and gradient capability of a 96-well DNA Engine™ thermal cycler with an innovative optical detector. Dual-channel detection of emitted fluorescence over a broad dynamic range makes the system ideal for applications such as mRNA quantitation with internal controls and allelic discrimination. The DNA Engine Opticon 2 system is compatible with most common fluorescent dye chemistries including SYBR® Green I, as well as commercially available detection kits including TaqMan® probes and molecular beacons.
