The Applied Biosystems MiniAmp Plus Thermal Cycler is a compact, accurate, and economical thermal cycler designed to fit your lab's basic thermal cycling needs. Innovations like a responsive color touch-screen and VeriFlex Blocks temperature-control technology enable simple, accurate optimization. The MiniAmp Plus Thermal Cycler can be accessed through Thermo Fisher Connect, giving you the freedom to design and securely upload your methods from any mobile device or desktop computer.

Key features and benefits:

  • VeriFlex Blocks—with three independent temperature zones for precise temperature control over your PCR optimization
  • 5-inch intuitive color touch-screen—for easy programming and training of new users
  • Small footprint—With dimensions of 19 cm wide and 39 cm deep, you can fit the MiniAmp Thermal Cycler almost anywhere. And because its airflow is front to back, you can set multiple units side by side to save valuable bench space.
  • WiFi-enabled and accessible by Thermo Fisher Connect—giving you the freedom to design and securely upload your methods from any mobile device or desktop computer

Frequently asked questions (FAQs)

Why are my PCR tubes crushed/deformed after my PCR run?

The heated thermal cycler lid is designed to make sure that optimized pressure is applied on the microplate for an efficient PCR reaction. When using PCR tubes, excess pressure on the tubes, from the heated lid can cause deformation of the tubes. To avoid this, we recommend using the Tray/Retainer set, as shown below:

Cat. No. 4381850, MicroAmp 96-Well Tray/Retainer Set for Veriti Systems – This Tray is for use with MicroAmp Strip Tubes (or MicroAmp Reaction Tubes without Caps, 0.2 mL), with the Veriti Thermal Cycler, SimpliAmp Thermal Cycler, and Proflex PCR System.
Cat. No. 403081, MicroAmp 96-Well Tray/Retainer Set – This Tray is for use with MicroAmp Strip Tubes (or MicroAmp Reaction Tubes without Caps, 0.2 mL), with the 7000 System, 2720 Thermal Cycler, and GeneAmp PCR System 9700.
Cat. No. 4379983, MicroAmp 96-Well Tray for VeriFlex Blocks – This Tray is for use with MicroAmp Strip Tubes (or MicroAmp Reaction Tubes with Caps, 0.1 mL), with the Veriti Thermal Cycler, Veriti Fast Thermal Cycler, SimpliAmp Thermal Cycler, and Proflex PCR System.

How can I sign in as an administrator to the MiniAmp Plus Thermal Cycler (Cat. No. A37835, A37835, A38076, A38077) and connect to the cloud? What is the default admin password?

The default admin password/PIN is 0000 + the last 4 digits of the instrument serial number. For example, if the serial number was 1101234567, then the default admin password would be 00004567.

What is the password for the MiniAmp Plus Thermal Cycler

The password for the MiniAmp Plus Thermal Cycler is 0000 plus the last four digits of the instrument serial number. For example, if the instrument serial number is 123456789 then the password would be (00006789).

Do you offer an adapter to fit 96-well skirted plates with the MiniAmp Plus Thermal Cycler (Cat. No. A37835)?

Unfortunately, we do not offer an adapter for using skirted plates with the MiniAmp Plus Thermal Cycler (Cat. No. A37835).

Please use our PCR and qPCR Plastics Selection Tool to find compatible plates and accessories for your instrument.

What is the optimal ramp rate for my thermal cycler?

There is no universal ramp rate for a thermal cycler because both the block and sample ramp rates are different for each thermal cycler. The sample ramp rate changes with the volume of the sample since more time and energy are required to heat higher sample volumes. The ramp rate may also need to be changed for a particular PCR assay or primer pair if you are trying to use the same PCR assay on two different thermal cyclers, for example.

As a reference, the block ramp rate commonly used with DreamTaq Polymerase on the MiniAmp thermal cycler is 3.0 C/sec. In a 50 µL PCR reaction, this translates to a sample ramp rate of ~1 C/sec.
