Intended use
The Biometra TAdvanced is an end-point thermal cycler. It is designed to amplify
nucleic acids by repeated cycles of heating and cooling using DNA polymerases in a
PCR reaction.
The thermal cycler is developed for Research Use Only (RUO).
The Biometra TAdvanced combines modern design with user-friendly software. The
user interface consists of a touchscreen with a graphical or spreadsheet display that
shows the time, the status and the temperature program for each run. Using the
touchscreen keyboard, information and program parameters can be entered directly
on the screen. Due to the high ramp rates, the Biometra TAdvanced thermal cycler is
suitable for fast PCR applications, thereby helping to shorten program run times.
