Learn how the BAX® System works.
The BAX® System instruments feature two types of PCR detection technologies - real-time and end-point. Learn about PCR technology and detection technologies at the links below.
Proven performance.
The BAX® System is configured for convenience, minimizing operator handling and improving ease of use. In addition, outstanding sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy round out the system's compelling value to its users. Read those customer's stories in the case studies listed here.
Convenient tableted reagents.
The BAX® System provides all of the necessary components for PCR -- polymerase, nucleotides and target-specific primers -- in convenient tablets, packaged inside PCR reaction tubes. You simply hydrate these tablets with prepared test samples, load them into the instrument, and start the program.
