The AriaMx Real-Time PCR System is a fully
integrated quantitative PCR amplification,
detection, and data analysis system. Now
with innovative modular optics which can be
changed out in one easy step, the instrument
provides the flexibility to scale up over time,
as needed.

The latest design combines a state-of-the-
art thermal cycler, an advanced optical
system with LED excitation source, and data
analysis software. Continuing the tradition of
intuitive software, the instrument now has a
touchscreen so plates and analytics can be
started with the touch of a finger.
