Video: QuantStudio 5 Dx system features
The QuantStudio 5 Dx system is an instrument with premium performance at an affordable price that provides:
- Results you can trust—detect differences in target quantity as small as 1.5-fold in singleplex reactions and obtain 10 logarithmic units of linear dynamic range
- Simple, powerful software—allows users to set up a run, lay out assays, control the instrument, and conduct plate analysis within a single, easy-to-use software interface
- Proven performance—over 10 years of clinical real-time PCR instrument manufacturing
- Designed with the clinic in mind—interactive diagnostic instrument with short run times, minimal maintenance, and use of existing plastic consumables
- Enhanced security—auditing and e-signature functionalities that enable you to comply with regulations
- Peace of mind—IVD test menu allows only authorized IVD tests to be run through IVD mode, helping to reduce the risk of unauthorized use and accidental or intentional misuse
- Flexibility you need—diagnose or develop, the choice is yours with software options that guide you through every step of test development* and in vitro diagnostic (IVD) modes
- Maximize benchtop space—compact instrument
- Superior support—support available globally by highly skilled, customer-focused staff
- QuantStudio performance—reliability, sensitivity, and accuracy you expect coupled with an intuitive and simple-to-use interface that allows users of any experience level to operate the system with ease
