Real-Time PCR


Real-Time PCR Solutions for Research Laboratories

Choosing a real-time PCR solution usually starts with three questions: Which targets do you need? Which instrument will you use? And how much preparation do you want built into the workflow?

Jant Pharmacal offers real-time PCR instruments, predefined multiplex panels, lyophilized panel formats, custom pre-plated configurations and pharmacogenomics options. Use the guide below to find the best place to start, or contact our molecular testing team with your instrument model and target list.

Choose the Right Starting Point

You do not need to know the exact catalog number before contacting us. Start with the option that best matches your current workflow.

Not Sure Which Format to Choose?

If you already have an instrument

Begin with the exact manufacturer and model, block or tube format, supported detection channels and your intended target list. These details help narrow the selection before you spend time reviewing products that may not fit your setup.

If your required targets match an existing menu, compare the standard multiplex and lyophilized multiplex formats. If they do not, review the custom pre-plated options.

If you are building a new workflow

Start with the planned applications and approximate testing volume, then evaluate the instrument, extraction method, plate format, controls and panel design as one workflow.

Browse RT-PCR analyzers and nucleic acid extraction solutions, or contact Jant before selecting individual components.

What to Have Ready When You Contact Us

A few practical details will help our team direct your request:

  • Real-time PCR instrument manufacturer and model
  • Plate, tube or block format
  • Available fluorescence channels
  • Required targets, genes or variants
  • Expected sample or reaction volume
  • Estimated testing volume and preferred kit size
  • Required controls and any existing extraction workflow

Frequently Asked Questions

Send Jant your target list along with the instrument manufacturer and model, fluorescence channels, reaction format and estimated volume. If an existing standard panel is suitable, our team can direct you to it. If not, a custom pre-plated configuration may be considered following technical review.
Standard multiplex panels use a predefined target menu. Custom pre-plated panels are intended for projects that require a different target combination or a configuration prepared around a specified analyzer and format. Final compatibility and project requirements must be reviewed before ordering.
Lyophilized panels provide a pre-made reagent format that may reduce some preparation steps. Reconstitution, storage, stability, instrument compatibility and workflow requirements vary by product, so review the current product documentation before use.
Jant can review the instrument information and intended panel with you. Compatibility should be confirmed using the current product documentation, supported fluorescence channels, reaction format and the exact analyzer configuration.
Yes. Jant lists PGx RT-PCR panels and custom PGx options. Review the available gene and SNP menus, or contact the molecular testing team with the variants required for your research workflow.
The products presented in this molecular-testing category are for research use only unless the individual product page and current manufacturer labeling explicitly state otherwise. Research-use-only products are not for use in diagnostic procedures.

Research Use Only. Product availability, target menus, configurations and compatibility may change. Review the current instructions, specifications and regulatory labeling for each product before ordering or use.
