Independently temperature controllable block for PCR

Abstract

The present invention relates to an independently temperature controllable block for PCR. More specifically, the purpose of the present invention is to provide a temperature circulation apparatus which is for PCR and has a plurality of individual heat chambers, wherein: the upper and lower ends of a plurality of arrayed heat-generating chambers can each be divided into rows and columns and selectively electrified; temperature measurement sensors are provided to match one-to-one with the heat-generating chambers, and thus each of the heat-generating chambers can be independently and accurately controlled; a conventional heat chamber can be replaced merely by coupling a heat-generating chamber, coated with a heat-generating material, between upper and lower end boards having a printed circuit board configuration, thus simplifying the structure and reducing manufacturing costs; a heat-generating chamber having a wide top and narrow bottom shape can be heated directly to transfer the heat directly to a tube body closely attached to the inside; and heating and cooling can be rapidly performed due to the low heat capacity of the heat-generating chamber, and thus a temperature cycling time can be reduced.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a module for PCR that can independently control the temperature. More specifically, it provides a temperature cycle device for PCR with a plurality of individual heating chambers. Rows are distinguished, so that electricity can be selectively energized, so the temperature of each heating chamber can be independently controlled, and only the heating chamber coated with the heating element is connected between the upper end plate and the lower end plate in the shape of a printed circuit board. Instead of the existing heat chamber, it has a simple structure and low manufacturing cost, and it directly heats the heating chamber with a wide top and a narrow bottom, so that heat can be directly transferred to the tube close to its inner side, and because the heating chamber The heat capacity is small, so it can heat up and cool down quickly, so that the temperature cycle time can be shortened. Background technique [0002] Ex...

Problems solved by technology

Due to the above reasons, the heat capacity of the module becomes larger, which eventually leads to the consumption of energy beyond the temperature cycle of the gene sample, and consumes more time on the temperature cycle
