Quantitative PCR

The Applied Biosystems 7500 Fast Real-Time PCR System is a real-time PCR system which enables high-speed thermal cycling with run times for quantitative real-time PCR applications of fewer than 40 minutes. The system is an open platform and can be used to analyze samples using custom made or COTs-based PCR assays. The 7500 Fast system is batch-cable and can analyzed a batch of 96 samples per run. It is used for gene expression analysis, pathogen quantitation, SNP genotyping, isothermal and +/– assays utilizing internal positive controls.

The Applied Biosystems 7500 Real-Time PCR System provides:

  • Flexible five-color detection systems are easily calibrated for your choice of dyes without requiring the addition of new filter sets
  • Plate Setup Wizard walks you effortlessly through experimental design
  • Advanced optical multicomponenting algorithm minimizes spectral cross talk—superior for multiplexing
  • Variable excitation capacity allows greater sensitivity for the greatest range of dyes including FAMTM/SYBR® Green, VIC®/JOE TM, NEDTM/TAMRATM/Cy3®, ROXTM/Texas Red ®, and Cy5®
