Comparing the
2720 Thermal Cycler
to Previous
Instruments
The 2720 Thermal Cycler can be compared to the GeneAmp
®
PCR System 9700, as
shown below:
2720 Thermal Cycler System 9700
♦ Almost the same user interface as
previous instruments
♦ Integrated sample block
♦ Uses same disposables as 96-well
sample block on system 9700
♦ Small footprint
♦ Instruments can be “packed”
side-by-side on a bench because the
air flows out the back, rather than the
sides.
♦ Interchangeable sample blocks with 60,
96, or dual-384 wells
♦ Networking capabilities
♦ High “instrument diagnostics”
capabilities
♦ Variable ramp rates and cycling speeds
♦ PCMCIA slot for software upgrade and
Methods Transportability card
