QIAquant 384 5plex (115V) System FUL-2

This real-time PCR thermal cycler from QIAGEN is engineered for high-throughput 384-well plate workflows and simultaneous detection of up to five fluorescent targets per reaction. The instrument uses an LED-based optical engine with five excitation and emission channels, supporting dye combinations such as FAM, HEX, ROX, Cy5, and Cy5.5 so that multiplex gene expression, SNP genotyping, copy number analysis, and pathogen quantification can be consolidated into a single run. A heated lid prevents condensation, while Peltier-based block control delivers uniform cycling across the plate with gradient optimization from 30 to 99 °C and adjustable ramp rates for fast protocols. Typical reaction volumes fall between 5 and 20 µL, and a complete run on a 384-well plate can often be finished in roughly 40 minutes depending on the cycling program. The on-board touchscreen and QIAquant software provide run setup, melt curve analysis, absolute and relative quantification, and allelic discrimination modules for laboratory workflows. For research use only, the system is compatible with QIAGEN QuantiFast and QuantiTect reagent kits as well as standard SYBR Green and probe-based chemistries from other suppliers. Calibration controls and pre-loaded protocol templates simplify routine applications in molecular biology, infectious disease research, veterinary testing, and food or environmental screening.
