Multifeatured equipment for eliminating PCR contamination. PCR equipment brings together UV irradiation and antimicrobial stainless steel to create a dual-attack environment against PCR contamination. Filtered and sterilised air treated by the UV/HEPA system flows into the PCR chamber. Control potential PCR contamination with built-in UV to inactivate DNA between experiments. Shortwave UV can be used as a standard laboratory practice to reduce surface and airborne contaminants in the chamber.
Construction: stainless steel coated and acrylic panels

• HEPA duct features antimicrobial coated stainless steel that resists bacteria growth
• Side access with a slide out design makes changing filters and UV tube easy
• Duct includes a shortwave (254 nm) ultraviolet tube for eliminating airborne microbes

The UV/HEPA units feature four-stage filters:
- Pre-filter helps to preserve the life of other filters by capturing large dust particles
- Carbon-filter removes ozone, gases, odour and smoke
- HEPA-filter provides a barrier (99,99%) against dust, bacterial and mould down to 0,3 µ particles
- ZerOzone ozone catalyst grid reduces significant amounts of ozone, minimising the degrading effects of ozone on microarray data. The catalyst grid supplies a gentle airflow onto the sample work area. This airflow creates a working environment that helps to block entry of unwanted contaminants onto PCR samples
