PCR & qPCR Systems in Kenya
Available PCR & qPCR Systems Models

Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) and quantitative PCR (qPCR) systems are indispensable molecular biology tools revolutionizing diagnostics and research in Kenya. At their core, these systems automate and precisely control a process called amplification. Think of it as a highly specific biological photocopier for DNA. The primary function of a PCR system is to exponentially increase the quantity of a specific segment of DNA from a sample, making it detectable and analysable.

qPCR, also known as real-time PCR, takes this a step further. While PCR confirms the presence of a target DNA sequence, qPCR not only amplifies the DNA but also quantifies it in real-time during the amplification process. This means we can determine not just if a specific genetic material is present, but also how much of it is there. This quantitative capability is critical for many clinical applications.

In Kenya, advanced molecular diagnostic capabilities are crucial for a wide range of healthcare and research institutions. PCR and qPCR systems are indispensable tools for accurate and rapid disease detection, pathogen identification, and genetic analysis. Understanding which facilities and departments benefit most can help optimize resource allocation and improve patient care across the nation.

Ensuring the seamless integration of your new PCR and qPCR system into your laboratory is our top priority. We understand that proper installation is critical for optimal performance and accurate results. Our dedicated team of experienced technicians in Kenya follows a comprehensive, multi-stage process designed to minimize disruption and maximize efficiency.

The investment for a Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) or quantitative PCR (qPCR) system in Kenya can vary significantly, influenced by factors such as the brand, specific model, features, throughput capabilities, and bundled accessories or software. For a basic, entry-level PCR machine, you might expect to invest anywhere from KES 1,500,000 to KES 3,500,000. More advanced thermal cyclers with gradient capabilities and faster run times would fall into a slightly higher bracket.

For quantitative PCR (qPCR) systems, which offer real-time detection and quantification of nucleic acids, the price point is generally higher due to the integrated optics and detection technology. Standard qPCR instruments typically range from KES 3,000,000 to KES 8,000,000. High-throughput, multi-channel, or highly specialized qPCR systems designed for complex applications like gene expression analysis, pathogen detection, or diagnostics can easily exceed KES 10,000,000.

It's important to note that these figures are approximate and can fluctuate based on market dynamics, supplier promotions, and whether you are purchasing a new or refurbished unit. Many suppliers also offer service contracts, installation, training, and consumables as part of a package, which should be factored into the overall cost of ownership.
