Thermal Cyclers in Uganda
Available Thermal Cyclers Models

A thermal cycler, also commonly known as a PCR machine or DNA thermal cycler, is a vital laboratory instrument that precisely controls temperature changes over repeated cycles. This capability is fundamental to the Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) technique, a cornerstone of modern molecular biology and diagnostics. Essentially, it automates the heating and cooling steps required to amplify specific DNA segments.

The core function of a thermal cycler is to create the optimal temperature environment for the enzymatic reactions involved in PCR. This includes denaturation (separating the DNA strands), annealing (allowing primers to bind to the target DNA), and extension (where DNA polymerase synthesizes new DNA strands). By performing these temperature shifts repeatedly, the target DNA sequence is amplified exponentially, generating millions or even billions of copies from a minuscule starting sample.

The crucial role of thermal cyclers in modern molecular biology makes them indispensable tools across a variety of Ugandan healthcare and research institutions. From ensuring accurate diagnostics to driving cutting-edge scientific discovery, these advanced instruments are vital for facilities committed to advancing health outcomes and scientific knowledge.

Ensuring your new thermal cycler is operational and performing optimally is our top priority. Our comprehensive installation process in Uganda is designed to be efficient and minimize disruption to your laboratory workflow. We handle every step, from initial site assessment to final calibration, guaranteeing a seamless transition.

The cost of a thermal cycler in Uganda can vary significantly based on a multitude of factors, including the brand, specific model, available features (e.g., gradient capability, number of blocks, block material), whether it's a new or refurbished unit, and the supplier. Generally, you can expect to find basic, reliable thermal cyclers starting from approximately UGX 10,000,000. Mid-range models with more advanced functionalities, such as precise temperature control and higher throughput, typically fall within the range of UGX 15,000,000 to UGX 30,000,000. For high-end, research-grade instruments with advanced programming, exceptional uniformity, and specialized applications, prices can extend upwards to UGX 40,000,000 and beyond. It's important to obtain quotes from multiple reputable suppliers operating within Uganda to get the most accurate and competitive pricing for your specific laboratory needs.
