Writing Protocols Is As Easy As 1-2-3
The C1000 Touch thermal cycler’s onboard software
includes the protocol autowriter — a wizard-based
programming option that simplifies protocol creation.

Ordering Information
Catalog #184-1100

The protocol autowriter automatically suggests a cycling protocol.
Enter the polymerase, amplicon length, and primer annealing temperature,and select one of three speed settings.

Intuitive Graphical Interface
A large full-color touch screen display enhances viewingof status and programming screens.

Run status view.

Superior Uniformity and Shorter Run Times
The C1000 Touch thermal cycler exhibits high averageramp rates, rapid settling time, and tight thermal uniformity
throughout the ramp, resulting in rapid arrival at targettemperature and enabling faster protocol run times.

Rapid arrival at target temperature and superior uniformity. Graphshows temperature measured by probes in 15 wells across the sample
block of a C1000 Touch thermal cycler. Traces are nearly indistinguishable,indicating tight thermal uniformity. Note the consistent ramp rate throughout
heating and cooling.

Practice of the patented 5' Nuclease Process requires a license from
Applied Biosystems. The purchase of these products includes animmunity from suit under patents specified in the product insert to use
only the amount purchased for the purchaser’s own internal researchwhen used with the separate purchase of Licensed Probe. No otherpatent rights are conveyed expressly, by implication, or by estoppel.
