Gentier 48: two complete systems for fast and reliable real-time PCR
The Gentier 48 series, developed by Tianlong, offers two models: the Gentier 48E and the Gentier 48R. Both are designed to meet the needs of small laboratories, mobile units, or environments requiring compact and easily transportable devices. Whether for use in a fixed laboratory or for field testing, these instruments ensure high analytical reliability and consistent performance, while simplifying experimental processes.
Both models offer a capacity of 48 samples per cycle, with remarkable speed of execution. The Gentier 48E is equipped with four fluorescence channels, allowing simultaneous detection of four targets per well, while the 48R offers two. This difference makes the 48E model more suitable for complex applications involving multiple markers, while the 48R is ideal for targeted or routine testing.
Thanks to a heating system that reaches a rate of 28°C per second and cools to 26.2°C per second, PCR cycles are completed in just 40 minutes. Temperature control is accurate to ±0.1°C, ensuring excellent reproducibility. The models feature a 7-inch colour touchscreen, an interface in English and Chinese, and a USB port for exporting or importing data. In the event of a power failure, the system automatically saves the results.
The embedded software allows analyses including absolute or relative quantification, genotyping, end-point analysis, and melting curves. The system accepts 48-well plates, 8-tube strips, or individual non-skirted tubes. The interface can be used directly via the screen or connected to a PC. The device also offers a customised reporting function, local network cloud compatibility, and direct printing in stand-alone mode (with optional thermal printer ).
The Gentier 48 series is internationally certified (China, EU, USA, UK, etc.) and recommended by the Chinese Medical Equipment Association. It is ideal for applications such as clinical diagnostics, food safety, environmental testing, and scientific research.
