Thermal Cyclers in Tunisia
Available Thermal Cyclers Models

A Thermal Cycler, often referred to as a DNA thermal cycler, PCR machine, or thermocycler, is a laboratory instrument essential for molecular biology techniques. Its primary function is to precisely and repeatedly alter the temperature of a reaction mixture over a programmed series of cycles. This controlled temperature ramping is critical for the amplification of specific DNA segments through a process called Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR).

At its core, a thermal cycler uses a heating and cooling block (often made of aluminum or silver for superior thermal conductivity) to rapidly change the temperature of the sample tubes. A typical PCR cycle involves three key temperature steps:

• Denaturation: High temperatures (typically 94-98°C) are used to break the hydrogen bonds holding the double-stranded DNA helix together, separating it into single strands.
• Annealing: The temperature is lowered (typically 50-65°C) to allow short DNA sequences called primers to bind (anneal) to complementary regions on the single-stranded DNA templates.
• Extension: The temperature is raised (typically 70-75°C) to the optimal temperature for a thermostable DNA polymerase (like Taq polymerase) to synthesize new DNA strands, extending from the annealed primers.

By repeating these steps numerous times, a single target DNA sequence can be amplified exponentially, generating millions or billions of copies. This makes it possible to detect and analyze even minute amounts of DNA.

In Tunisia's growing healthcare and research landscape, thermal cyclers are indispensable tools. Their ability to precisely control DNA amplification through Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) makes them vital across a spectrum of medical facilities and research institutions. Whether you are involved in routine diagnostics, cutting-edge research, or quality control, a reliable thermal cycler is essential for accurate and efficient molecular analysis.

Ensuring your new thermal cycler is correctly installed and calibrated is crucial for reliable and reproducible results. We offer a comprehensive installation service tailored to your laboratory's specific needs in Tunisia. Our experienced technicians will guide you through each step, from initial site preparation to final calibration, guaranteeing optimal performance of your advanced thermal cycler.

The investment in a thermal cycler in Tunisia can vary significantly, depending on the technology, features, and brand you choose. For essential, standard models suitable for routine PCR applications, you can generally expect prices to range from approximately 15,000 TND to 40,000 TND. These units typically offer reliable performance for basic amplification needs.

For more advanced thermal cyclers featuring gradient capabilities, higher throughput options, or specialized functionalities like real-time PCR (qPCR), the price point will naturally increase. These sophisticated instruments can range from 40,000 TND up to 100,000 TND or more, reflecting their enhanced precision, speed, and versatility for complex molecular biology research and diagnostics.

Several factors influence these price ranges, including the number of wells (e.g., 48, 96, 384), the speed of thermal ramp rates, the precision of temperature control, software features, and the after-sales support provided by the supplier.
