DRIFTCON^® GS SERIES RELEASE

Introducing DRIFTCON^® GS-TO
New Generation of (q)PCR Cycler Calibration Technology
CYCLERtest B.V. proudly announces the release of DRIFTCON^® GS-TO.

DRIFTCON^® GS-TO is not an incremental development of previous DRIFTCON^® generations. The GS generation has been completely redeveloped and introduces a newly engineered platform architecture including entirely new hardware, entirely new software and a newly developed processing engine.

Developed from the ground up for professional temperature and optical calibration of (q)PCR cyclers, the platform combines modern calibration workflows with structured acquisition, synchronized processing and advanced reporting capabilities.

Built in accordance with ISO 20836 (q)PCR cycler calibration methodology, DRIFTCON^® GS-TO supports reduced measurement uncertainty and enhanced calibration performance.
