What is the Standard Operating Procedure for PCR?

What is PCR?

A polymerase chain reaction workstation is enclosed on all three sides. Amplifying DNA and RNA fragments into millions of copies this workstation is used in life science laboratories. The equipment prevents cross-contamination.

What is the working of a PCR machine?

  • This enclosed cabinet workstation creates a laboratory environment that is particle and bacteria-free 
  • HEPA filtered air cabinets transmit unidirectional steady and constant airflow with zero turbulence. 
  • No protection is provided to the user but ensured protection to the samples and products from outside contaminants. 
  • In vertical laminar airflow PCR cabinets, HEPA filters direct airflow in a downward direction on the work surface. The bacteria and other particles are drawn out. 
  • Thick metal sheets and pipes facilitate safety to the cabinet. HEPA filters augment the most critical particles. With 95% to 5 microns efficiency, the Aluminium case does not wear off. The aluminium anodized case can be as fine as 0.3 microns with 99.99% efficiency. The blower motor includes aluminium anodized impellers, and the assembly has 1/4HP, 1400RPM. 
  • Stainless steel work surface allows regular and easy cleaning fitted with air gas cock and an electric outlet. Interiors are illuminated by fluorescent lamps.
  • The front side is covered with a manual sliding acrylic transparent door for the safety of the sample.
