Temperature-Jump Systems
Product code: TJ-64
The TJ-64 Temperature-Jump System from TgK Scientific is a standalone, compact apparatus employing the Joule Heating method to induce rapid changes in temperature in a reaction volume of some 100 µl. This instrument delivers temperature jumps of up to 10 °C in a few micro seconds. The system has a thermostated cell coupled directly to an optical system with absorption and fluorescence detection options. A capacitive discharge power supply is used to store the high voltage energy that is rapidly discharged into the sample.

The signal detection system incorporates fast response amplifiers and signal conditioning electronics. Data acquisition and processing is handled by Kinetic Studio, which allows the acquisition of data on linear and logarithmic time bases together with display and analysis. This turnkey solution provides a relatively straightforward and easy to use system for a technique that is traditionally only available to specialists. The sample cell has compatibility with most chemical and biological systems and can thermostated over a wide range.
We have extensive experience in the design and development of T-Jump equipment for a huge range of chemical and biological systems.
