What does 'Parts Only' mean for this listing?

A 'Parts Only' listing indicates that the equipment is not fully functional and is being sold for its components. Buyers should assume it requires repair or can be used to salvage parts for other units.

Can this unit be repaired and put into service?

While possible, it depends on the specific fault and availability of replacement parts. Buyers should factor in potential repair costs and the need for qualified technicians.

What are the advantages of a rotary design PCR cycler?

The rotary design typically provides superior thermal uniformity across all samples, reducing edge effects and improving data consistency compared to block-based systems.

What fluorophores are compatible with the Green and Yellow channels?

The Green channel is commonly used for FAM, SYBR Green I, and FITC. The Yellow channel typically supports HEX, VIC, TET, and JOE.

Is software included with 'Parts Only' listings?

Software is generally not included or guaranteed with 'Parts Only' listings. Buyers should inquire with the seller regarding software availability and licensing.
