Product overview
The world’s first thermocycler with individually controlled wells and built-in AutoNorm™
iconPCR is the first and only thermocycler that intelligently adjusts amplification in real time—so you get normalized, sequencing-ready libraries in one automated step. Built-in AutoNorm technology eliminates the need for individual quantification and normalization, delivering the best possible data from every sample, regardless of input or quality.
NGS workflow improvement
Significantly streamline and improve NGS library preparation workflows
- Built-in AutoNorm eliminates pre and post-PCR quantification and normalization steps
- Works with your current kits
- Up to 50% less hands-on time
- 1 SPRI cleanup instead of 96 (for 96 samples)
Maximum flexibility for protocol development
- Linear Gradient: 96 different temperatures with >80°C range
- Each well is independently monitored at a millisecond frequency and actively controlled to a precision within 0.2°C of the required temperature.
