Bio-Rad Laboratories, a provider in life science research and clinical diagnostic products, launched its PTC Tempo 96 and PTC Tempo Deepwell Thermal Cyclers, designed to optimize PCR applications such as sequencing, cloning, and genotyping.

The PTC Tempo 96 and PTC Tempo Deepwell Thermal Cyclers are a new generation of conventional PCR thermal cyclers from Bio-Rad. The latest design is built with a refreshed, intuitive user interface and flexible connectivity features for streamlining protocol management.

These PCR instruments offer enhanced usability with features designed to support biopharma labs in conducting quality control, among other uses.

A motorized lid allows for automation compatibility and modern instrument control for workflows. The PTC Tempo Thermal Cycler is engineered to maintain superior thermal performance, delivering accurate results alongside the flexibility to expand and grow within the laboratory.

“The new line of PTC Tempo Thermal Cyclers delivers the same reliability and high-quality performance that Bio-Rad has been providing to customers for over 30 years,” says Steven Blakely, senior director, Gene Expression, Bio-Rad. “With this engineering expertise, we have developed and manufactured robust and efficient thermal cyclers that scientists need and want.”
