GRADIENT CALCULATOR
It is not possible to view the actual temperatures of each column in the progam or while the unit is
running. Therefore for any set gradient, the gradient calculator can be used to calculate the temperatures
for each of the columns and display them on the screen. This allows the user to determine the optimal
amplification conditions for the assay.
