Molecular Biology

Molecular biology laboratories depend on a comprehensive suite of precision instruments and consumables to enable DNA/RNA manipulation, accurate sample handling, and contamination control—all essential for reproducible experiments.

Core tools include manual and electronic pipettes (single-, multi-, and positive-displacement), paired with DNase/RNase-free tips and tubes for reliable pipetting and sample integrity.

Consumables extend to PCR strips and plates (96‑ and 384‑well formats), centrifuge tubes, cryovials, and sealing films certified inhibitor-free, ensuring consistency across downstream workflows.

Equipment such as centrifuges (benchtop to ultracentrifuge), thermal cyclers (including qPCR systems), spectrophotometers or UV-Vis devices for nucleic acid quantification, and gel electrophoresis systems with imaging/documentation are essential for molecular analysis.

Supporting infrastructure includes autoclaves for sterility, water baths, refrigerated and ultra‑low freezers, vortex mixers, lab balances, pH meters, biosafety or laminar-flow cabinets, and spatially separated clean zones to mitigate contamination.

2025-08-14T12:52:41Z Running PCR in the Lab: Considerations That Matter PCR: The Molecular Copy Machine That Changed Biology In the world of molecular biology, the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) is as transformative as the invention of the microscope. This simple yet powerful method lets scientists take an almost invisible speck of DNA and produce millions to billions of copies in just a few hours. Invented in 1983 by Kary Mullis[1] (a discovery that later earned him the Nobel Prize in Chemistry), PCR has become a laboratory essential—driving breakthroughs in research, medicine, forensics, and environmental science.
