The new MaxyGene II Thermal Cycler replaces our successful and reliable MaxyGene. It brings increased speed and advanced features, providing the premium performance you have come to expect from Axygen brand products.
Features
- Unique flexible programming
- Rapid run times
- Improved workflow over traditional gradient cyclers
- Ramping rates up to 5°C/sec.
- Simple user interface
- Adjustable heated lid accommodates strips, tubes and microplates
- Pre-programmed standard protocols
Simplified Workflow – Improved Throughput
The MaxyGene II Thermal Cycler is extremely simple to program, compact in design and built to perform. The thermal cycler makes method optimization affordable and provides consistent, reliable results. It also features, Precision Thermal Control, rapid heating and cooling of the precision-machined sample block by six independently temperature controlled Peltier modules. A sophisticated algorithm program calculates sample temperature and triggers heating and cooling accordingly, minimizing over- and under-shooting. The MaxyGene II Thermal Cycler may be programmed to operate between one and six different annealing temperatures across the block. (See Figure 1) The thermal cycler provides improved throughput by reducing time and simplifies workflow by reducing steps.
A variety of applications – from single temperature soaks to sophisticated multistep programs can be performed with the MaxyGene II. All of these are easily set up. The time or temperature of a cycling step can be automatically increased or decreased during successive cycles. This is useful for “touchdown” applications and for extending annealing times as enzyme is depleted. Programs may also be paused while running. During operation, actual times and temperatures are displayed. Estimated run times are automatically calculated and a log of the last run can be displayed or downloaded to a printer or PC.
MaxyGene Thermal Cycler II Compatibility Guide
Well spacing in the MaxyGene Thermal Cycler II block is compatible with both thin walled thermal cycling plates and 0.2mL strip tubes. For best fit and performance, the use of Axygen thin walled polypropylene plates and tubes are recommended. Individual 0.2 mL tubes may also be used.

WinCT Viscosity
Via an RS232C interface, the WinCT-Viscometer software lets A&D’s SV series Sine-wave Vibro Viscometer display measurement progress in real time on a PC, and easily transmit the measured results to save or analyze. The WinCT-Viscometer CD-ROM is a standard accessory with the SV Series viscometer.
RsVisco, the graphing software utilized by WinCT-Viscometer, lets you create graphs of measured results and of the progress of viscosity measurement:
1. RsVisco creates the real-time graph of data received from A&D’s SV-series viscometer via RS-232C. RxVisco lets you graphically monitor in real time:
- Progress of change in viscosity during measurement
- Temperature data
- Temperature and viscosity, graphed together
2. You can choose from three types of graphs:
- Viscosity (Y axis) – Time (X axis)
- Viscosity/Temperature (Y axis) – Time (X axis)
- Viscosity (Y axis) – Temperature (X axis)
3. Graphs can be overlaid in repeating measurements, in 10 colors.
4. Measured data can be saved in a CSV format file.
5. Displayed graphs can be printed with a printer via a PC
