ISO 20836:2021 - temperature performance testing of thermal cyclers
ISO 20836 specifies requirements for the installation, maintenance, temperature calibration and temperature performance testing of standard thermal cyclers and real-time thermal cyclers.
It enables laboratories to determine if a thermal cycler is suitable for intended use and if it meets the requirements as set by the laboratory.
The standard has been established for laboratories performing polymerase chain reactions (PCR) in for example the food, environmental, human health, animal health and forensic testing domains.
The CYCLERtest thermal cycler calibration method meets the ISO 20836.
On the 14th of February the ISO 20836 was introduced by NEN via a webinar (in dutch).
Slides of the presentation are available in dutch and english.
