Thermal cycler having a unit for temperature analysis and / or verification, and method for analyzing or verifying the thermal performance of the thermal cycler and calibrating the thermal cycler

摘要

The present invention relates to a thermal block (14) having a plurality of sample wells (32) for accommodating test samples in a sample container, and an electric heating means (18) for heating the thermal block (14). And a housing (12) containing a power source (24) and an electronic control unit (22) for controlling the electric heating means (18), and the thermal performance of the thermal block (14). The thermal cycler (10) further comprises a temperature analysis and / or verification unit (28) for analyzing and / or verifying. The invention further relates to a method for analyzing or verifying the thermal performance of the thermal cycler (10) and calibrating the thermal cycler (10). In the thermal cycler (10) of the present invention, a unit (28) for temperature analysis and / or verification is incorporated in a housing (12), and a power source (24) and an electronic control unit ( 22) and the method according to the invention comprises the step of providing the thermal cycler (10) with a built-in unit (28) for the analysis and / or verification of the temperature, and the analysis of the temperature And / or using a unit for verification (28) for self-calibration of the thermal cycler (10).
