Gene-Alpha
Gene-Alpha portable real-time DNA thermocycler allows high-speed on-site detection of infectious pathogens.
The device provides high-speed amplification (15 − 20 min) when using isothermal test systems.
The portable kit case contains all the equipment required for the assay.
The sample capacity of the device is up to 6 samples per cartridge at the same time.
The TroBio Gene-Alpha works with any real-time and isothermal PCR systems that use FAM (HEX) and Cy5 dyes.
