Eppendorf Mastercycler ep Realplex

This used Eppendorf Mastercycler ep Realplex is a real time PCR detection system built on Eppendorf's ep gradient thermal cycler platform, combining precise thermal control with multichannel fluorescence detection. It was designed for quantitative PCR applications such as gene expression analysis, SNP genotyping, and pathogen quantification. The unit has been checked for proper block heating, cooling, and optical module function. The Realplex system supports up to five excitation and detection channels, giving researchers flexibility for multiplex assays using a range of common fluorophores. Its silver block design and gradient capability allow for fine tuning of annealing temperatures during assay optimization, which is especially valuable in labs developing new primer sets. The intuitive software interface made this platform popular among labs transitioning from conventional endpoint PCR to real time quantification. This instrument suits molecular diagnostics labs, university research groups, and biotech companies looking for a dependable mid range qPCR platform. It has been maintained in a working lab setting and shows normal wear from routine use, offering a cost effective route into real time PCR work.
