Company:

Eppendorf

Product Name:

Mastercycler ep gradient

Catalog Number:

5341

Our lab is investigating quantitative expression of various genes under different experimental conditions. We routinely employ qPCR for the analysis of different gene expression in both normal and cancerous cells before and after various drug treatments. We used Master cycler epgradient machine from Eppendorf for this purpose and obtained consistent result all the time.

Experimental Design and Results Summary

Tips

We used 2 ug of mRNA for the synthesis of cDNA and from this preparation, 2 ul of cDNA is used for the analysis.

The Good

Software is user friendly

The Bad

None

The Bottom Line

Over all, the equipment is very help full in determining the expression of genes in different samples with very limited small amount of starting material.
