About the Eppendorf 5331 Mastercycler Gradient
Description:
The Eppendorf 5331 Mastercycler Gradient is a high-performance thermal cycler designed for precise and efficient polymerase chain reaction (PCR) amplification. Featuring a gradient block for temperature optimization across a single run, it allows researchers to determine ideal annealing temperatures quickly. The unit offers fast ramp rates, uniform thermal distribution, and intuitive programming via a user-friendly control panel. The 5331 supports standard 0.2 mL tubes and strips, and its compact footprint makes it suitable for any molecular biology lab requiring flexible, reliable PCR cycling.
Economic Advantage:
The Mastercycler Gradient’s ability to run temperature gradients across 12 columns simultaneously saves valuable time in PCR protocol development. This eliminates the need for multiple trial runs, reducing reagent use and accelerating optimization—delivering long-term savings in high-throughput labs.
