Built for Performance
The 7500 system for Human Identification includes SDS v.1.2.3 software which is validated to run Quantifiler™ Human DNA and Quantifiler™ Y Human Male DNA quantification kits. SDS v1.2.3 is a powerful, versatile software that includes plate set-up wizards and automated analysis tools that make data processing easier. Its advanced data viewing capabilities make analysis less time consuming. The instrument is a powerful, five-color platform that is calibrated for the broadest range of dyes available: FAM™⁄SYBR™ Green I, VIC™⁄JOE™, TAMRA™⁄CY3, ROX™⁄Texas Red, and CY5 dyes. Its specialized optical system enables easy and accurate calibration to new dyes without requiring the addition of new filter sets and its advanced multi-componenting algorithm minimizes spectral crosstalk making the instrument superior for multiplexing.
