Overview

The PTC Harmony Thermal Cycler is an addition to Bio-Rad’s next generation of conventional PCR thermal cyclers. Engineered to maintain thermal performance that delivers accurate results, the PTC Harmony Thermal Cycler offers the flexibility to scale with your laboratory. The PTC Harmony features a nonautomated lid, a refreshed, intuitive user interface and flexible connectivity options for streamlining protocol management.

The PTC Harmony Thermal Cycler is available in two fixed-block configurations: PTC Harmony 96 Thermal Cycler for most general PCR applications and PTC Harmony Deepwell Thermal Cycler for accommodating larger volumes up to 125 µL.

Features and Benefits

  • Programmable thermal gradient: optimizes annealing temperatures
  • Large touch screen: streamlines protocol programming and editing
  • Heated lid: supports a wide range of vessels and sealer types
  • Expanded connectivity: includes USB-A 2.0, Ethernet, and USB barcode scanner support
  • Network storage drive access: enables efficient, centralized data management
  • Nonautomated lid: ensures consistent operation with a streamlined mechanical design

Applications and Uses

  • Amplification/PCR
  • Cloning
  • Cycle sequencing
  • Gene expression studies
