1.2.3 Protein Chiller Block
The protein chiller block uses a thermo-electric temperature controller to maintain a user-specified
temperature to prevent denaturation of protein samples. There are 16 temperature-controlled slots
and 2 slots that are not temperature-controlled, or ambient temperature. Each slot holds a 200
µ
l
PCR tube. The temperature is set using the interface on the thermo-electric control unit (Figure 3).
