Eppendorf PCR Consumables - Compatibility Guide for PCR and qPCR Cyclers

One of the key issues regarding PCR consumables performance (plates, stripes and respective sealing options) is their compatibility with several cycler systems available on the market. In this Application Note Eppendorf PCR/qPCR Consumables were tested on the main cycler brands and compared to consumable systems recommended by the cycler manufacturer. Physical thermo block compatibility (fitting) and PCR/qPCR assay param eters have been evaluated and these results show similar performance (sensitivity and efficiency) of Eppendorf consumables as compared to specific consumables of the competitor systems in most of the cycler platforms.
