The COBAS AMPLICOR Analyzer is the first benchtop system to fully automate the amplification and detection steps of the Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) testing process on a single instrument. It combines five instruments into one (thermal cycler, automatic pipettor, incubator, washer and reader).
The COBASŸ AMPLICOR Analyzer offers:
* Bar-coded data entry * 48 sample capacity per run * Test-specific reagents * Multiplexing- up to six detections per amplified sample * AmpErase Enzyme (uracil-N-glycosylase, UNG), a reagent that provides for selective amplification by destroying deoxyuridine-containing amplicon, reducing the risk of cross-contamination
