PCR Hood

PCR (Polymerase Chain Reaction) hood is a localized contamination control solution providing a sterile enclosure to amplify DNA and RNA. Designed for use in biology, microbiology, and genetics laboratories, a PCR hood prevents cross-contamination during and in between experimental procedures through HEPA filter and UV sterilization.

Alpha Linear manufactured PCR workstations/hoods eliminate the risk of cross-contamination and improve the accuracy of PCR and general tissue culture procedures.
