A polymerase chain reaction cabinet creates a sterile work environment to reduce cross-contamination in DNA/RNA sample sequencing and amplification processes. Typically, the workspace consists of three enclosed sides with a frontal access port to shield the sample from airborne contaminants.
Our products feature state-of-the-art SMART Safe technology that acts as an automatic safeguard to reduce harmful UV exposure. In addition to a five-inch full-colour touchscreen, 800 LUX LED lighting, UV lights and a tempered glass sash. We offer the best-in-class materials and technology available in the UK.
Polymerase chain reaction, commonly known as PCR or molecular photocopying, is a scientific method used in molecular biology. It describes the process of DNA sequencing to create copies (in the millions) of small DNA segments. It's a popular process used across the criminal forensic industries and biomedical research. Applications include fingerprint analysis, virus detection and the diagnosis of genetic disorders.
Lighting is an important part of your laminar flow cabinet specification. Our energy-efficient 800 LUX LED lights provide excellent clarity and last longer than older fluorescent tubes.
Our interactive control panel simplifies the decontamination process. It allows you to set regular UV intervals throughout the day to ensure your workstation remains sterile between tests.
Bench-mounted PCR cabinets are stationary units fixed to a pre-existing work surface. The products are ideal for laboratories short on space but lack the manoeuvrability of stand-mounted units.
If your facility cannot accommodate the standard dimensions listed in our specification table, we develop unique designs at no additional cost. This includes the product's height, width, and depth.
Maintaining a sterile work environment is crucial to ensuring the viability and accuracy of your PCR tests. Our HEPA models feature H14 HEPA filters in addition to optional carbon filters depending on the needs of your application.
