With support for quantification analysis and melting curve analysis, TL988-IV provides comprehensive nucleic acid characterization in one platform.
One of the core strengths of the TL988-IV PCR instrument lies in its independent temperature control technology.
High repeatability temperature zones
Optimized PCR thermal cycling accuracy
Reduced temperature deviation across wells
Stable amplification efficiency
The system achieves a detection sensitivity as low as 1 copy, with a linear dynamic range from 10¹ to 10¹⁰ copies/ml, and a repeatability CV ≤ 2.1%, ensuring reliable and reproducible results even for low-abundance samples.
The TL988-IV is equipped with a 4-channel high-performance optical system, enabling simultaneous multi-fluorophore detection.
Excitation source: 4 high-power LEDs (470–630 nm)
Detector: 4 high-sensitivity photodiodes
Detection range: 525–670 nm
Channel 1: FAM, SYBR Green I
Channel 2: VIC, HEX, TET, JOE
Channel 3: ROX, Texas Red
Channel 4: Cy5
This configuration allows multiplex PCR experiments and supports open reagent platforms, giving laboratories maximum flexibility in reagent selection.
