PS-PCR : The Paris-Saclay Open Source PCR thermal cycler
Description
PCR (Polymerase Chain Reaction) is a very useful procedure in the field of synthetic biology. However, this technique requires a device called a thermal cycler, which is designed to cycle the samples through different temperature steps. Commercial PCR thermal cyclers are traditionally very expensive, with prices starting at $2000, which makes them hard to afford for small labs and DIY projects.
This project aims at creating a thermal cycler for under 30€ with easily accessible parts.
