Description
The Digital LightCycler® System is a semi-automated system for detection and absolute quantification of nucleic acid targets via digital PCR technology (dPCR). The system is comprised of the Digital LightCycler® Analyzer and the Digital LightCycler® Partitioning Engine.
The main features of the system are:
- 6 fluorescence channels for multichannel detection
- 3 analysis types (absolute quantification, CNV, indel)
- 3 types of nanowell plates (universal, high resolution, high sensitivity) for different applications
- Partitioning of up to 8 samples on 1 nanowell plate in the partitioning engine
- Processing of up to 96 samples on 12 nanowell plates on the analyzer
