PCR Workstation / PCR Cabinet

PCR workstations are designed to protect against contamination during sensitive PCR amplification and manipulation of DNA or RNA. Since minimizing cross-contamination in turn minimizes inaccurate results, PCR cabinets and hoods are useful additions to the molecular biology and genomics lab. Features include UV light for sterilization and overlapping seams or seamless construction so harmful energy cannot escape the chamber.

PCR enclosures come in several types: Units with built-in laminar flow and incorporated HEPA or ULPA filters offer filtration efficiency of 99.999% and retention of particles 0.3 µm and larger. Dead-air or still-air boxes provide a circulation-free environment. Helpful features include digital timers for automatic control of UV light, ergonomic design, and hinged sashes for easy access. If you require a larger work area, keep in mind that PCR workstations tend to offer more space than PCR cabinets.
