The ThermaCyte™ X16 is a compact, high-efficiency 16-well real-time qPCR system designed for small and mid-sized laboratories. Features a high ramping rate of up to 10°C/s, outstanding temperature uniformity, and integrated PMT detector for time-resolved real-time scanning.
Real-time PCR has become the gold standard in molecular diagnostics, but high instrument costs and large benchtop space requirements often restrict smaller labs. The ThermaCyte™ X16 System addresses this gap by packing high-end thermal and optical capabilities into a highly compact, cost-effective benchtop system.
Equipped with an advanced single LED excitation source and photomultiplier tube (PMT) detector, the X16 delivers time-resolved real-time scanning across up to 4 fluorescence channels, supporting major dyes including FAM, VIC, HEX, ROX, and Cy5.
With a maximum ramping rate of 10°C/s and temperature accuracy of ±0.1°C, the ThermaCyte™ X16 ensures rapid cycling times and high reproducibility, making it ideal for clinical diagnostics, research, food safety, and environmental screening.
Advanced molecular diagnostic capabilities engineered for clinical excellence and research-grade precision.
Ramping rates of up to 10°C/s significantly reduce cycle times — completing qPCR runs faster.
Temperature accuracy of ±0.1°C and uniformity of ±0.15°C across all 16 wells ensures precise results.
High-sensitivity Photomultiplier Tube (PMT) detector performs time-resolved real-time scanning.
Compact footprint fits on any laboratory bench — ideal for mobile clinics and field diagnostic units.
Quickly access and load assay protocols using the software QR code scanner.
Control the system and export data seamlessly via USB or wireless Bluetooth connections.
Designed for diverse diagnostic and research use cases across the clinical spectrum.
Rapid, on-site pathogen detection in community clinics, emergency departments, and border screening.
Cost-effective molecular diagnostics setup without the capital expense of 96-well systems.
Screening for food pathogens and animal health infectious agents in field laboratories.
