Sample and Information Management

PCR is routine and easy these days. However, it can be difficult when you want to do something that you've never done before! That's when you need high quality PCR cyclers and consumables to eliminate unwanted variables from your assays. All of our Mastercyclers have a special lid to avoid evaporation and superior block homogeneity to achieve consistent results, despite the well being used. Additionally, our twin.tec PCR Plates consist of two materials to provide a rigid shape for automation. Five different colors can help organize your workflow. Make PCR an art - not a nuisance!

PCR is a true cornerstone of molecular biology – its capability to rapidly amplify and detect nucleic acid sequences makes it an essential technique in many research, clinical and industrial applications.

Its high sensitivity does, however, put high demands of the equipment and consumables used. Small impurities or measurement errors have a large impact on results.

At Eppendorf, we understand what it takes to make sure you have full confidence in your PCR results. So whether you do endpoint PCR or real-time PCR (qPCR), we offer the PCR thermal cyclers, accessories and consumables you need to get accurate, reproducible data.

We also offer a range of service agreements to keep your equipment performing optimally – now, and in years to come. Regular maintenance helps to prevent downtime and delayed results, and gives you the peace of mind to focus on science.

Eyes on Cancer Therapy - From University and Hospital to Start-up

For this issue we have interviewed Dr. Harri Sihto, a 42-years-old researcher and entrepreneur. Dr. Sihto is the Chairman of the Board at Sartar Therapeutics Ltd. and Adjunct Professor of Cancer Biology at the University of Helsinki, Finland. His career has focused on molecular cancer research and rare cancers for 15 years and he has
recently co-founded the biotech company that is developing new targeted therapies for a rare soft-tissue tumor – the gastrointestinal stromal tumor or GIST.
