BD - Max PCR Machine
This listing for a 1 of 2 BD Max PCR Machine
BD MAX System is intended for in vitro diagnostic (IVD) use in performing FDA cleared or approved nucleic acid testing in clinical laboratories. It is capable of automated extraction and purification of nucleic acids from multiple specimen types, as well as the automated amplification and detection of target nucleic acid sequences by fluorescence-based PCR.
The BD MAX System is capable of:
Independent nucleic acid extraction and purification with built in extractor.
PCR amplification using thermal cycling across 24 lanes
Real time detection of products of amplification
Identification of each Sample Buffer tube by external barcode reader
Work List verification by internal barcode reader
Fluorescence detection at up to five wavelengths, allowing multiplex reactions by Cycle threshold (Ct) call, or multiplex reactions by melt analysis
Qualitative, quantitative and melt sample analysis
Features:
Integrated and fully-automated extraction and thermocycling steps
Processes and analyzes up to 24 specimens per run
On-board lysis and extraction with pre-filled reagent strips
Real-time PCR with two 24-lane microfluidic PCR readers
Dedicated multi-color optics including: 475/520, 530/565, 585/630, 630/665, 680/715
Consistent results through standardized workflow and protocols
Rapidly expanding menu and open-system options to help address emerging testing needs
Less than one minute of hands on time per sample
