QIAquant 96 2plex (230V) System FUL-2

A benchtop real-time PCR thermal cycler from QIAGEN, the QIAquant 96 2plex performs quantitative nucleic acid amplification and detection across a well plate sample block. The system supports duplex fluorometric detection through two optical channels, allowing simultaneous interrogation of a target gene and an internal reference control within a single reaction.

Control software and analysis tools are provided by QIAGEN, with the instrument accepting standard 0.2 mL tubes, strip tubes, or microplates. A Peltier-based thermal block delivers rapid ramp rates for cycling protocols, while the integrated optical module records fluorescence at user-defined cycle points. The 2plex optical configuration distinguishes two reporter dyes, supporting two-color multiplex assays for relative quantification, allelic discrimination, and viral load measurements.

Common molecular biology applications include gene expression profiling through RT-qPCR, pathogen detection, SNP genotyping, and copy number variation studies. The instrument connects to a laboratory network and exports run data in standard formats for downstream interpretation. The 230V variant is specified for installation in 230V mains environments.
