Multiplex Thermal Control System

An integrated compact high precision Temperature Control System (TCS) drives and fully controls the In-Check chip. The TCS is a completely independent modular system that manages up to five different tests and protocols simultaneously.
Compared to a conventional thermocycler and hybridization station, the user can start the tests independently without having to wait to collect the complete set of samples.

Thanks to the ST microcontroller based embedded architecture the temperature accuracy is within +/- 0.1°C. An interesting feature permits to control the ramping speed during the temperature transition to fully optimize PCR protocols.

Multiplex Thermal Control System
The system is modular and can be scaled to accommodate the needs of both large diagnostic settings and point-of-care (POC) applications. It is extremely user-friendly and allows unskilled operators to perform all needed steps from sample to answer.
