OPTIFLEX

Component optics system of a thermal cycler apparatus used for polymerase chain reaction (PCR) data collection, which said component system is comprised in key parts of: a detector, an excitation source, excitation and emission filters and an optical train; all used to generate various spectra of light waves, to pass them through an array of wells containing nucleic acids during polymerase chain reaction (PCR) amplification, and to collect the resulting visual data for subsequent analysis by a separate computer element of the apparatus
