Overview

Thermal cyclers, also known as PCR machines, are essential laboratory devices used to amplify DNA segments through the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) process. They play a critical role in genetic research, diagnostics, and biotechnology applications by precisely controlling temperature cycles necessary for DNA denaturation, annealing, and extension.

FAQ

What should I look for when buying a used thermal cycler?
