Applied Biosystems QuantStudio Dx Real-Time PCR Instruments 4470660 - Tested

The Applied Biosystems QuantStudio Dx Real-Time PCR Instrument (catalog number 4470660) is a versatile platform designed to meet the needs of clinical laboratories and assay developers. It offers both In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD) mode for routine diagnostic testing and Test Development mode for assay development and validation.

Key Features:

Interchangeable Blocks: The instrument features a front-access block change design, allowing for quick and tool-free exchange of thermal blocks in less than one minute. This flexibility supports various formats, including 96-well standard, 96-well Fast, 384-well plates, and qPCR microfluidic cards, accommodating a range of throughput and application needs.

High Sensitivity and Dynamic Range: Demonstrated sensitivity down to a single copy and a dynamic range of up to 9 logs ensure precise quantification across a wide range of target concentrations.

Temperature Uniformity: The system maintains a temperature uniformity of ±0.5°C, ensuring consistent and reliable amplification across all wells.

Security and Compliance: Equipped with features to assist with 21 CFR Part 11 compliance, including security, auditing, and electronic signature functionalities, making it suitable for regulated environments.

Specifications:

Excitation/Detection Wavelengths: Six excitation filters (450–670 nm) and six emission filters (500–720 nm) support a broad range of fluorophores for multiplexing capabilities.

Supported Applications: The system is versatile, supporting standard curve, comparative Ct, genotyping, high-resolution melt (HRM) analysis, melt curve analysis, gene expression studies, and both qualitative and quantitative assays.

Dimensions and Weight: The instrument measures approximately 36 inches (91.44 cm) in height, 29 inches (73.66 cm) in width, and 38 inches (96.52 cm) in depth, with a weight of around 250 pounds (113.4 kg).

This instrument is designed to deliver reliable performance for IVD applications while providing the flexibility needed for test development. Its robust features and compliance capabilities make it a valuable asset in clinical and research settings.
