AELAB TC2000-G1/G2/G3 Thermal Cycler Gradient PCR System

The AELAB TC2000-G1/G2/G3 Thermal Cycler Gradient is an indispensable laboratory instrument in the field of molecular biology, used for sequencing, cloning, gene expression studies, and mutation analysis. It plays a key role in clinical research, environmental science, food testing, agricultural genetics, and related disciplines.

Designed with advanced gradient temperature control, high-performance Peltier refrigeration and heating, and a 10-inch touchscreen interface, the TC2000-G Series ensures precise and reproducible PCR temperature cycling. Multi-module configurations enable laboratories to run several PCR gradient programs simultaneously, optimizing diverse experimental requirements.

⚙️ Design & Construction

The TC2000-G Series employs robust Aluminum carrier modules and high-efficiency Peltier elements for rapid heating and cooling cycles. Each model integrates a full-color 10.1-inch LCD (1280×800) touchscreen, supporting intuitive parameter entry and real-time monitoring. The system incorporates a self-adaptive pressure hot lid accommodating different tube heights and offers reliable Block/Tube temperature control for enhanced uniformity.

🔬 Working Principle / Testing Method

The thermal cycler uses precise Peltier-driven temperature modulation to perform denaturation, annealing, and extension cycles essential for DNA amplification. Gradient span capability (up to 42°C depending on model) enables users to test multiple annealing temperatures within a single run. Advanced edge-temperature compensation ensures uniform heat distribution, while internal algorithms maintain ±0.1°C accuracy and ±0.2°C uniformity.
