Function and Application
We bring the Nobel Prize topic PCR (polymerase chain reaction) into your classroom. The Thermocycler miniPCR mini16 copies the genetic material (DNA) exactly as the big, expensive laboratory devices do. The miniPCR offers space for up to 16 samples and is very easy to use. The device is conveniently controlled and programmed via a free app on your smartphone or computer. The app is compatible with Windows, Mac, Android, Kindle, iPhones as well as iPads and is available in all app stores. The thermal cycler can be connected via Bluetooth. You do not need to keep the machine connected to your computer, tablet or smartphone to run the program.
