The PCR instrument that optimizes every sample automatically

Thermocyclers run one, pre-set program for every well. iconPCR™ instruments monitor amplification in real time and automatically stop each reaction at its optimal endpoint.

Standard Thermal Cycling

Amplification follows a pre-set number of cycles. Some samples are over-amplified, others are under-amplified. The resulting concentration and quality varies widely.

AutoNormalization with iconPCR

In slope-mode, amplification of each individual well automatically stops and enters a cold hold once the exponential threshold is reached.

PCR optimization shouldn’t be trial and error

Overcycling

Creates artifacts, bias, and wasted sequencing reads.

Undercycling

Causes sample dropout and poor library yields.

Manual Optimization

Consumes time and precious samples.

With iconPCR, optimization is automated.Here’s how it works

First, we built a better box

Each well of the icon instrument features anindividual, miniaturized thermocycler with real-time temperature monitoring.
