Temperature Control (Fig.1)The key to the design of any thermalcycler is uniform and accurate temperature control. Thermo's thermalcyclers can use up to five controlmodes for monitoring temperatureduring PCR reactions: Active TubeControl, Simulated Tube Control,Simulated Plate Control, SimulatedSlide Control and Block Control.

Temperature Uniformity (Fig.2)It is paramount for reproducibleresults to attain a uniform temperatureacross the block. In Thermo thermalcyclers this is monitored across theentire block during each stage of thethermal cycling protocol. Every instrument is calibrated usingequipment traceable to the UKNational Physical Laboratory stand-ards. A dynamic uniformity test isconducted as part of Thermo's QualityAssurance procedure to ensure theymeet this specification prior todispatch.

Temperature Control Options

Temperature Gradients (Fig.3)By using our gradient blocks, it is quickand easy to optimise primer to template annealing temperatures.Multiple annealing temperatures canbe assessed in one experiment bydefining a temperature gradient of upto 15°C across the block. The optimisedtemperature can then be transferreddirectly to standard cycling due to ourinnovative software and block design.

Active Tube Control (Fig.4)Thermo's unique method of choice formonitoring and controlling any thermalcycling reaction is to measure theactual temperature of the reaction mix during PCR. When this method isemployed, the machine actively com-pensates for differences in the programmed temperature and theactual temperature achieved in thereaction mix by adjusting the blocktemperature. This method of tempera-ture control ensures that the program-med temperatures and dwell times areaccurately achieved, resulting in optimal PCR performance.

Simulated Tube/Plate and Slide Control(Fig.5)When there is a requirement to useevery position within a block, werecommend that Simulated Control beused. We have developed advancedsoftware algorithms (Simulated Tube,Plate and Slide Controls) that achievetemperature accuracy similar to ActiveTube Control for tube, 96 / 384 wellplate and slide formats. The softwareconstantly calculates the sample tem-perature, factors in the sample volumeand then adjusts the block temperatureto ensure that the sample reaches theprogrammed temperature.

Block Control (Fig.6)Our thermal cyclers can also use BlockControl, which is the sole controlmethod used on some thermal cyclers.Block Control is best used for prolon-ged static incubations. If Block Controlis used during short incubation peri-ods, such as during a PCR reaction, thereaction mix is at the set temperaturefor a considerably shorter time thanthat programmed, which could lead toa reduced yield of PCR product.

Flexible Network of Thermal CyclingBlocksThe MultiBlock System (MBS) compris-es a central computer with sophisti-cated software, which can be net-worked to up to 30 individual satelliteblocks. The choice of the number andtype of each block is completelyflexible, giving you the freedom to customise your PCR system. Satellite blocks are available in 0.2ml(gradient and standard), 0.5ml (gradi-ent and standard) and 384 well for-mats, all of which can be added singularly providing further flexibility.

Accurate Temperature ControlOptimal PCR performance can be ob-tained in our blocks because of theiraccurate and reproducible temperaturecontrol. Our Active or Simulated tem-perature control methods account for

thermal cycling blocks for flexible system approach to PCR

the thermal lag that occurs when heatis transferred from our eight peltier de-vices to the sample mix. Both of thesetemperature control options monitorand efficiently adjust the heating orcooling of the peltiers in the PCR block.While Simulated Control is adequatefor many applications, Active TubeControl is superior because the changein block temperature is based on thetemperature of the sample itself. Thisensures that both set temperaturesand desired dwell times are accuratelyachieved.

User-Friendly SoftwareThe MBS controlling software hasbeen specially designed for ease ofuse. This is most evident when thegraphical options for editing and running protocols are viewed. It isfurther demonstrated when control

capabilities. The MBS software per-mits efficient management of resultsdata much more effectively than ther-mal cyclers with onboard software.With computer control, you can store unlimited numbers of programs in thefamiliar Windows® file structure, aswell as retrospectively view programresults data (run logs) in graphicaland text-based format. Furthermore,both programs and run logs can be printed for hard copy storage in alab book. These features combined provide traceability that is in line with many GLP procedures.

Gradient CapabilityIf transferring a PCR protocols from analternative instrument manufacturer,or just starting with a new primer set,our gradient blocks easily facilitateprotocol optimisation.

of the blocks is considered. With a few simple mouse clicks, you can program a block and start a protocol.Furthermore, you can either controland program all blocks in unison orprogram each block independently.

Following the start of a run, the gra-phical display provides clear second-by-second information about blocktemperature and experimental parame-ters. In addition, information about allblocks networked to the system isavailable in graphical and tabular for-mat, so you can immediately identifywhich blocks are active and what pro-tocols are running on those blocks.

Printable Programs and Run LogsComputer control provides users withmore benefits than simply a graphicalinterface and large data storage


These blocks can be programmed witha protocol containing a simultaneousrange of annealing temperatures. The optimal annealing temperaturecan subsequently be determined byonboard gradient calculation software.Once optimised, our outstanding well-to-well uniformity (±0.3°C within30 sec) ensures reproducible resultswhen conditions are transferred tostandard protocols. Thermal gradientblocks are available in 0.2ml and0.5ml formats.

Space Saving DesignMBS satellite blocks can be positionedin any arrangement: next to each otheror at opposite ends of the laboratory.This gives you the freedom to design anetwork that makes the most of yourlaboratory space. The MBS does notrequire any bulky power supply unitsto operate. Slots in the lid and blocksurround maintain the airflow in theMBS blocks. This means that theinstruments can be placed up againstone another and still be adequatelycooled. In addition, the block orienta-tion (portrait) makes the MBS anextremely narrow unit, making themost of limited bench space.

Outstanding UniformityThe MBS exhibits an excellent blockuniformity, of ±0.3°C across the blockwithin 30 seconds of reaching the tar-get temperature (measured at 72°C).This block uniformity ensures that you

obtain reproducible and consistentresults, irrespective of the position ofthe samples within the block.

Adjustable Heated Lid DesignOur heated lid design is simple tooperate. In one action, the lid is closedand the heated plate lowered to thecorrect height. Increased pressure andtemperature have been incorporatedto ensure ultimate flexibility in choiceof sample format and sealing options.

Reliability AssuredEach networked MBS block is indepen-dently controlled and has individualMains power supply. If the MBS soft-ware is switched off or if the computercrashes or is switched off, the satelliteunits continue the existing run to completion. The built-in diagnosticsand calibration check facility ensurethe continued reliability of the MBS.

Start-Up Kits AvailableStart-up kits are available to users intwo formats: a one-block option and a two-block option. Both formatsinclude a PC with PCR authorised soft-ware and full configuration. For userswho require more blocks or for thosewho have a system and whose labhas exceeded capacity, the ability toadd single economically priced satellite blocks further enhances thesystem's value. Whether running a few samples or thousands, the MBSsystem offers value for money.
