Biometra TRobot II – Automated Thermal Cycler Leading PCR Expertise for the Automated Workflow

Always best results

In addition to standard polymerase chain reaction (PCR), the Biometra TRobot II is also suitable for all other molecular biological or chemical incubations in PCR plates. For example, the generation of libraries for Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) is an important step in a larger workflow where the automated thermal cycler can be used. This reduces the manual effort and the possibility of errors. 

The Biometra TRobot II automated PCR machine has outstanding heating and cooling rates and excellent temperature homogeneity across the sample block for highly reproducible PCR results. For the setup of new protocols, or for the transfer of existing protocols from other thermal cyclers, it is sometimes necessary to make slight optimizations to the protocols. For this purpose, the Biometra TRobot II includes a gradient function – making it possible to test different temperatures in the critical annealing step of the PCR in one run.

Ease of work

A conveniently prepared library allows for fast integration into automation systems. In addition, the Biometra TSuite software can directly control the automated thermal cycler, which is helpful for first PCR runs in preparation for the actual application. Maximum user safety is ensured with a unique, touch-sensitive safety frame which immediately stops the lid closing when resistance is detected. The smooth block surface without gaps is essential for easy and effective cleaning and decontamination. For stress-free work it is also important to keep the noise level low. The ventilation system has been designed to remain very quiet, even at high performance levels. This allows you to work next to Biometra TRobot II and maintain concentration!
