The ones I know of You might also want to look into the MJ Research Programmable Thermal Controller. I think they have models which will accomodate microtiter plates. They're in Cambridge, MA. Sorry, I don't know the address or tel. #, but you can probably get it from the telephone co. The MJR PTC is what we use for our PCRs, and we're pretty happy with it. With some of the early models they had problems with the semiconductor junctions which do the heating and cooling, but they seem to have all the bugs worked out now, and they were very helpful with repairs whenever we had a problem.
