ABI 310 Prism Genetic Analyzer
ATCG Labs is equiped with two ABI 310 automated DNA sequencers. The genetic analyzer is designed for a wide range of sequencing and fragment analysis applications.  It performs comparative sequencing, linkage analysis, SNP detection, discovery and validation as well as mutation detection.




Eppendorf BioPhotometer
The biophotometer performs a rapid and reliable quantification of ds/ss DNA, RNA, proteins, oligonucleotides, and bacteria cell density measurement. Single use uvets minimize the possibility of contamination between samples. 






Eppendorf Thermomixer

The thermomixer provides continuous heating and shaking of 24 x 1.5ml tubes.






Fisher Vortex Genie-2

The vortex is used to suspend cells in test tubes and centrifuge tubes by oscillating rapidly in a circular motion.






Centrifuge

A centrifuge is designed to separate materials of different density from each other by virtue of centrifugal force.





Mastercycler
Two thermocyclers are sequestered in the PCR room containing amplified DNA to a single location and minimizing the possibility of contamination. A Mastercycler repeatedly cycles through various temperatures required for a frequentative, temperature-dependent chemical process such as the polymerase chain reaction. 






Pipette
ATCG Labs as species specific sets of pipettes minimizing the possibility of cross contamination.
