Frost & Sullivan Green Excellence Award Conferred on Eppendorf AG for Mastercycler nexus PR Newswire LONDON, Nov. 5, 2012 - Eco-friendly Mastercycler offers exceptional power-saving capability and low acoustic emissions LONDON, Nov. 5, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Based on its recent analysis of the PCR instrumentation market, Frost & Sullivan recognises Eppendorf AG with the 2012 European Green Excellence Award for its Mastercycler nexus. "In addition to the reproducibility of results, the Mastercycler nexus also provides an optimised PCR reaction, low acoustic emissions and is suitable for all consumable types," noted Frost & Sullivan Senior Research Analyst Ms Divyaa Ravishankar. "This makes the Mastercycler nexus an ideal choice across a range of industry verticals such as academia and manufacturing sites." An automated standby feature and the amount of power consumed are the two key highlights of the Mastercycler nexus. Power consumed during the standby mode is about three to five times lower when compared to competitor thermal cyclers. A few instruments in the market still consume considerable amounts of power even when the thermal cycler is in a switched "off" mode. In contrast, Eppendorf's Mastercycler nexus is equipped with power saving capabilities which keeps it from consuming power when the machine is switched off. This eco-friendly Mastercycler offers exceptional power-saving capability.
