opentrons-thermocycler

PCR thermal cycling automates DNA/RNA amplification by controlling block and lid temperatures independently (4-99°C block, 37-110°C lid). Load ThermocyclerModuleV2, prepare a plate with samples, define a temperature profile, and execute the protocol to run multiple cycles automatically.

Yes. The thermocycler supports multi-step temperature profiles for qPCR, RT-PCR, and other amplification workflows. Define cycle parameters, temperature steps, and hold times in your protocol to execute high-throughput amplification on GEN2 compatible platforms.

Yes. The thermocycler integrates with Opentrons liquid handling for walk-away workflows. GEN2 auto-sealing lid support enables automated plate sealing and unsealing within programmable protocols, combining thermal cycling with upstream sample preparation.

The thermocycler maintains block temperatures from 4-99°C and lid temperatures from 37-110°C. It executes profile-based cycling with independent block and lid control, supporting complex multi-step temperature incubations for diverse PCR applications.

Define thermocycler protocols alongside liquid handling steps: prepare samples, load plates, apply temperature profiles, and retrieve results. Programmable protocol execution allows seamless integration of thermal cycling into automated high-throughput DNA/RNA amplification pipelines on Opentrons platforms.
