Denaturing Gradient Electrophoresis Temperature Control Unit

Description

The redesigned VS20DGGETC temperature control unit combines buffer recirculation with a heat sensor and 1.4kW heating element to facilitate precise temperature control to within 0.02C, allowing the gel temperature to be set to the melting temperature (Tm) of the amplified DNA polymorphism or mutation of interest. Other benefits include; a conspicuous 4-digit 16mm LED panel to aid set-up, precise tuning to within 0.1C resolution, an operating set point, plus three adjustable pre-set temperature values, and stirred buffer circulation for temperature stability and uniformity.

Programmable power supply option

At 500V, 800mA and 300W outputs, the optional CS-500V power supply provides full flexibility for different mutation detection techniques.
