genesig q32 Real-Time PCR Instrument

About the genesig q32 Real-Time PCR Instrument

genesig 32 Overview
The genesig q32 Real-Time PCR Instrument is one of the fastest qPCR instruments on the market today due to its rapid heating and cooling. Assembled from just a few building blocks, this robust qPCR instrument allows analysis of up to 32 samples in both tube or strip format. The powerful genesig q32 software is easily installed from a USB flash drive onto any PC or Mac. The genesig q32 is used with 550 genesig Real-Time PCR Kits for human, vet, and food pathogens, as well as food speciation testing

The genesig Real-Time PCR Kit product range includes tests for a massive range of applications:

• Human Infectious Disease Screening
• Veterinary Diagnostics
• Food and Water testing
• Biothreat Detection

genesig q32 – Cutting edge design and technology
Assembled from just a few building blocks the robust genesig q32 system is easy to transport and install. Up to 32 samples can be run in 0.1 ml tubes or 8-strip format. Fast heating and cooling is achieved by utilizing robust Peltier elements, whilst assay performance is supported further by a heated lid design. Excitation is provided by high intensity LEDs filtered to provide light at 500nm that is capable of exciting all fluorophores commonly used in qPCR. A prism is used to generate spectra from fluorescent emissions. These spectra are imaged using a CMOS camera.

genesig q32 software
The genesig q32 software is delivered and easily installed from a USB flash drive. When installed in a network, the software can control several q32 instruments connected via LAN. The powerful and easy to use software provides the following features:

• Quick start using templates for all genesig kit applications
• Straightforward setup and editing of sample and target information
• Automated analysis modules for absolute and relative quantification, melting curve analysis and endpoint genotyping
• Analysis of full spectral data
• Compatible with Windows, Mac & Linux Systems
• Instrument start from a USB flash drive, using preprogrammed settings
• Data export functions
