About the Bio-Rad Tetrad 2 Four Blocks Peltier
Description:
The Bio-Rad Tetrad 2 Peltier Thermal Cycler is a high-capacity, four-block PCR system designed for large-scale and parallel thermal cycling. Each of its four independently controlled blocks can run separate thermal protocols simultaneously, increasing flexibility and throughput. Powered by Peltier heating and cooling elements, the Tetrad 2 ensures precise temperature control and uniformity across all wells. It supports various block formats, including 96-well, 384-well, and dual 48-well blocks, and integrates seamlessly with Bio-Rad’s automation systems for advanced genomic workflows.
Economic Advantage:
The Tetrad 2’s ability to independently control four blocks in one unit significantly boosts laboratory productivity, allowing multiple users or protocols to run concurrently. This consolidation of resources reduces the need for multiple thermal cyclers and enhances cost efficiency in high-throughput or core lab environments.
