Description:
SLAN-96P is a laboratory instrument intended to amplify target deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) or ribonucleic acid (RNA) in a clinical specimen using heat-stable polymerase enzymes and cycles of repeated heating and cooling (i.e., thermal cycling) to replicate a product [i.e., a polymerase chain reaction (PCR)]. Amplified product is detected and/or identified using oligonucleotide markers as it is produced (i.e., in real-time) or at the end-point. SLAN-96P's dual 48/48 reaction blocks are controlled separately, like two independent instrument. With SLAN-96P, two different assays can be tested simultaneously on a single instrument or a new assay can be started while another is running.
