Real time PCR
The Real-Time CFX OPUS 96 well (Bio-Rad) is a new generation instrument for the analysis of gene expression, Copy Number Variation (CNV) and High Resolution Melting (HRM).
- Compatible with all reagents and chemicals on the market
- Possibility to analyze up to 5 targets in the same reaction (Multiplex)
- Can be used without the use of a PC ('stand alone mode')
- Block for 96 well plates
- Possibility to access the BR.io 'cloud' to set up protocols and data analysis
- No need for additional dye as a passive fluorophore
Other:
"CFX Maestro 2.0" data analysis software
- Statistical analysis of gene expression with t-test and ANOVA
- Stability analysis of reference genes (housekeeping genes) and direct selection of the most stable using the GeNorm algorithm
- Possibility to analyze hundreds of plates using the ANOVA statistical analysis on all collected data by means of the "Gene Study" function
- "Precision Melt Analysis" interpretation software for HRM
- Email notification at the end of the run with sending of report and results
- High resolution image graphics suitable for scientific publications or presentations
- Gene expression evaluation
- Copy Number Variation (CNV) analysis
intermediate (requires initial training with expert staff).
