The Labnet MultiGene™ Gradient Thermal Cycler produces consistent, reliable results while making gradient technology affordable. This unit is extremely simple to program, compact in design and built to perform.

Rapid heating and cooling of the precision machined sample block is achieved by six Peltier modules. Two types of temperature control are selectable: block control and tube control. The MultiGene™ Gradient is provided with common pre-programmed protocols which are easily edited by navigating to the appropriate parameter with the arrow keys and entering a new value. A maximum of 99 programs may be stored in the system memory and organized in public folders or user folders, which can be password protected. The MultiGene Gradient thermal cycler block can be programmed to operate with uniform temperature across the block for consistent results, or with a temperature gradient for protocol optimization. The MultiGene™’s gradient is spread horizontally, allowing twelve temperatures to be evaluated simultaneously. A maximum spread of 24ºC can be set up across the block. The heated lid is fully adjustable to provide the proper pressure for use with different height tubes as well as plates. For optimum performance, temperature of the lid may be programmed.
