The SimpliAmp Thermal Cycler is a small, easy-to-use, and accurate thermal cycler that suits any lab's needs for everyday PCR. It is crafted with the reliable engineering and performance you've come to expect from Applied Biosystem instruments. It is elegantly designed to deliver quiet cycling and features an innovative, safe heated lid and a large LCD color touchscreen.

Features of the SimpliAmp Thermal Cycler include:

  • Optimize PCR temperature with precision—VeriFlex blocks provide three independent temperature zones for precise temperature control
  • 8-inch color touchscreen helps save time—the large, responsive, and easy-to-read interface simplifies instrument operation
  • WiFi-enabled for remote monitoring—conveniently monitor with PCR Essentials mobile app
  • Simple lid design protects samples—the innovative heated lid is designed to protect samples by automatically opening before cycling if not properly closed
  • Ready-to-use USB drive for easy data backup—on-screen prompts simplify USB back-up
  • Thermal simulation modes—available library of simulation modes allows experiments with the same ramp rates as previous or different instruments

Frequently asked questions (FAQs)

Can I purchase the sample block for the SimpliAmp Thermal Cycler (Cat. No. A24811) as a standalone product? Is it replaceable/interchangeable?

Unfortunately, we do not sell the sample block for the SimpliAmp Thermal Cycler separately. Only the ProFlex series and the Automated series of thermal cyclers have interchangeable blocks that we sell separately.

What is the optimal ramp rate for my thermal cycler?

There is no universal ramp rate for a thermal cycler because both the block and sample ramp rates are different for each thermal cycler. The sample ramp rate changes with the volume of the sample since more time and energy are required to heat higher sample volumes. The ramp rate may also need to be changed for a particular PCR assay or primer pair if you are trying to use the same PCR assay on two different thermal cyclers, for example.

As a reference, the block ramp rate commonly used with DreamTaq Polymerase on the MiniAmp thermal cycler is 3.0 C/sec. In a 50 µL PCR reaction, this translates to a sample ramp rate of ~1 C/sec.
