Researchers who work with PCR technologies must ensure effective protection against the unintended transfer of nucleic acids. Analytik Jena‘s UVP PCR Workstations & Cabinets are exceptionally equipped to provide systemic protection against such transfers.
The UVP PCR Workstations & Cabinets create an ideal environment for preparing PCR master mixes and other reactions by reducing any possible sample contamination. UV irradiation by means of the built-in 254 nm UV lamps significantly reduces surface and airborne contaminants in the chamber and maintains a clean work area to minimise repeat experiments and save time. The hoods include a timer to control UV decontamination of the chamber by simply setting the desired time. All systems feature a safety shut-off switch, which automatically turns the UV light off when the door is opened, protecting users from UV exposure. Additional contamination control is provided with a coated stainless steel and aluminium design that maintains antimicrobial efficacy. These systems can be configured with or without a HEPA filter assembly, and have been specially designed to enable unbelievably easy assembly and service.
