Overview

The Applied Biosystems QuantStudio 12K Flex Real-Time PCR System can simultaneously run up to four 3,072-reaction QuantStudio 12K Flex OpenArray plates in about four hours. When combined with the QuantStudio 12K Flex OpenArray AccuFill System, the QuantStudio 12K Flex system can produce up to 110,000 data points or more in an 8-hour day with as little as 20 minutes of hands-on time per run. A feature-rich touch screen interface and comprehensive software analysis tools for gene expression, and genotyping increases productivity.

 

Designed for the highest flexibility, the QuantStudio 12K Flex system has five-interchangeable block formats including: OpenArray plate, TaqMan Array card, 384-well, and 96-well (0.1 and 0.2 mL). This delivers unmatched versatility for the lab with flexible format requirements. The system also includes laboratory information management system (LIMS) support and features that assist with 21CFR Part 11 compliance are enabled for high-throughput, validated environments.

Features

The QuantStudio 12K Flex system offers:

Maximize throughput with minimal resources

Increase throughput by as much as 32-fold by running four OpenArray plates in a single run. 

Five interchangeable blocks

OpenArray plate, TaqMan Array Card, 384-well, 96-well (0.1 and 0.2 mL) blocks that are  interchangeable with no tools required

Automation compatibility

Increase productivity and reduce your manual tasks through automation compatibility with the Thermo Scientific Orbitor RS2 Microplate Mover

Maximum multiplexing & chemistry options

Proven fluorescence detection with enhanced OptiFlex system, allows up to six multiplexing targets 

Reduce start up time and hands on time

Start a 12,000-data-point experiment typically in 20 minutes or less. 

21CFR Part 11 compliance and LIMS support

Laboratory information management system (LIMS) support and features that assist with 21CFR Part 11 compliance are enabled for high-throughput, and an optional security, auditing, e-signature package can be added. 


Videos and demos


Scale experiments to meet the immediate throughput needs of your laboratory from 12K to a single reaction. Optional interchangeable blocks are available to run OpenArray plates, TaqMan Array cards, 384-well plates, 96-well plates (0.1 and 0.2 mL).

Start a 12,000 data point experiment in typically less than 20 minutes using automated sample loading with the QuantStudio 12K Flex AccuFill System.


Sample data

 

9-log separation

 

 

Real-time PCR reproducibility and 9-log dynamic range. Amplification plot shows results from real-time PCR of 18S DNA in 10-fold dilutions starting at 25,000 copies using the 384-well block. The data show highly reproducible results for input target quantities covering nine orders of magnitude (9 logs).
