Abstract:
A method and an apparatus for thermal processing of nucleic acid in a thermal profile. The method employs at least a first bath and a second bath, the method further employing a reactor holder for holding reactor(s) accommodating reaction material containing the nucleic acid. The method includes maintaining bath mediums in the baths at two different temperatures; and alternately allowing the reactor(s) to be in the two baths in a plurality of thermal cycles to alternately attain a predetermined high target temperature T HT , and a predetermined low target temperature T LT , wherein the bath medium in at least one of the baths is a high thermal conductivity powder.

Claim (Index 14):
An apparatus for thermal processing of nucleic acid in a thermal profile, the apparatus employing a reactor holder for holding reactor(s) to accommodate reaction material containing nucleic acid and the reactor(s) being in any form such as tube(s) or wellplate(s) or chip(s) or cartridge(s), the apparatus comprising:\n a first bath; a second bath, bath mediums in the baths being respectively maintainable at two different temperatures, and a transfer means for allowing the reactor(s) to be in the two baths in a plurality of thermal cycles to alternately attain: a predetermined high target temperature T HT , and a predetermined low target temperature T LT ; and an amount of powder to serve as the bath medium in at least one of the baths.
