DNA Sequencing Requires Precise Temperature Control for Better Yield and Purity
The DNA sequencing process involves multiple PCR cycles which involves specific temperature shifts for specific dwell times. The PCR process depends on many factors including precise temperature and control. Our customer, whom offers DNA sequencing technology to many fields, needed a better heating profile of the three primary heating shifts; Denature, Anneal, and Extend for better yield and purity. Most damaging was the incomplete reactions from thermal runaway in one or more shifts during the many cycles on their current equipment.
