The Alpha Cycler 2 (AC-2) dual block system allows multiuser labs without the throughput or demand for a four block system access to multi-block flexibility or labs outgrowing their single block system to ramp up their PCRs. The PCRmax Alpha cyclers are developed to deliver not only the best quality data you can expect from PCRmax but also to innovate and exceed the high standards expected by the community.
Alpha Cycler software has features such as recently used programmes; allowing users to quickly access their most commonly used protocols without the need to navigate through folders to find it, individual user logins; with protected protocols as-well-as allowing users’ access to temperature logs after each run to monitor the state of the system. The Alpha Cycler systems also contain a novel programme wizard which allows users to define a protocol based specifically off their primer sequence and template source. Primer sequences or Tms are inputted, amplicon length and source defined and the on board algorithm generates an optimised protocol for your assay.

Alpha Cycler 2 Key Features:
- Scalable - Chose from any combination of 96 or 384 well blocks
- Compact - Save precious labspace by condensing two truly independent blocks into one chassis with no networking issues or connectivity concerns
- Active Sample cooling - For sharper amplification and minimal non-specific amplification
- Programme Wizard - Generate a protocol specific to your sequence, template source and amplicon length in seconds
- Gradient - Allowing for simplified temperature optimisation, no matter the block chosen
- 96/384 well formats - Flexibility for any scale and user needs
- USB connectivity - To retrieve system information and easily transfer protocols between systems
- Android based operating system – making operation simple and lntuitive
