BaseTyper™ 48.4
Quiet HRM Real-Time PCR System

The BaseTyper™ series consists of open-platform real-time PCR instruments supplied by PentaBase for use with PentaBase assays and oligonucleotides or in other applications.

The BaseTyper™ 48.4 Quiet HRM Real-Time PCR System is a 4-channel 48-well instrument with an LED light source and 48 individual fiber optic cables. The BaseTyper™ 48.4 provides high a level of temperature accuracy which makes it particularly useful for high resolution melt (HRM) applications such as when evaluating microsatellite instability using the MicroSight® MSI 1-Step HRM Analysis assay. With its manageable and portable dimensions of 40 x 26 x 26 cm, and only 11 kg, it has been specially designed to support the needs of laboratories where space and flexibility matter.

  • CE IVDR
  • 4-channels and 48 wells

Intended Use

The BaseTyper™ 48.4 Quiet HRM Real-Time PCR System is intended for performing silent, rapid, and accurate Polymerase Chain Reactions (PCR), Reverse Transcriptase PCR (RT-PCR), quantitative PCR (qPCR), and fluorescence-based melt and High-Resolution Melt (HRM) analyses. The BaseTyper™ 48.4 Quiet HRM Real-Time PCR System obtains real-time measurements of signals from up to 48 samples in each run. The sample material genetic material (RNA and DNA) from the human body. The BaseTyper™ 48.4 Quiet HRM Real-Time PCR System can be used in medical institution laboratories and clinical laboratories for infectious pathogen (such as viruses, bacteria, mycoplasma, etc.) detection, or multiple tumor marker tests of neoplastic diseases, etc. For scientific research, it could be used for the fluorescence quantitative or qualitative analysis of genetic material (DNA, RNA, and derivatives of both) in fields of immunology, molecular biology, forensic science, genetics, archeology, zoology, phytology, etc. Each well can be analysed using fluorescence in up to four different fluorescent channels. The fluorescent signals can for example originate from DNA-binding fluorescent dyes or labeled probes. Signals can be converted to presence, comparative quantities, and/or physical-chemical property readouts. The instrument is intended for use by healthcare professionals or qualified laboratory personnel instructed and trained in the techniques of PCR.
