The AccuTherm is a temperature controlled vortexer that uses peltier technology to rapidly heat and cool precious samples. Its compact footprint incorporates an intuitive control panel with large multi-color display, which allows users to easily program and view temperature, time and speed settings. Eight interchangeable aluminum blocks accommodate PCR plates and a variety of common tube sizes, including a multi-block that holds both 0.5mL and 1.5mL tubes. The combination of heating and cooling with mixing makes the AccuTherm ideal for many life science research applications in the fields of molecular biology, biochemistry and clinical chemistry.
