False negative or non-specific PCR results are highly critical and might be caused by a defect heating element (peltier element) of the PCR cycler. Control of the reaction temperature is therefore essential. The kit provides a temperature sensitive PCR reaction to monitor inconsistencies in the temperature range of the thermal cycler.

PCR cycler validation kit contains kit components for running 2 cycler validation processes on one cycler or one validation on two individual block heated cyclers equipped for 0,2 ml PCR tubes. qPCR cycler validation kit contains kit components for running up to 4 cycler validation processes.
