We Write the Future
of Digital PCR
QX ONE System Interactive Tour
Meet the future of digital PCR — the QX ONE Droplet Digital PCR System. This fully integrated system is loaded with features that bring continuous operation and high throughput to digital PCR and enable the advanced multiplexing you have been asking for with superior precision and sensitivity.
Fully Automated Digital PCR
Droplet generation, thermal cycling, and droplet reading occur in a single instrument:
Droplet Generation
- Generates droplets for 16 wells all at once
- Seals the plate for thermal cycling
Thermal Cycling
- Customizes thermal cycling protocols for each plate
- Offers a temperature gradient option
Droplet Reading
- 4-color detection
- Advanced optics, fluidics, and motion control
- Displays data for each well during a run
Touch Screen
Onboard high-resolution 19-inch touch screen allows easy programming, run monitoring, and full analysis of data.
Onboard Reagents
Room for two bottles each of RFID-barcoded, hot-swappable Droplet Reader Oil, Droplet Generation Oil for Probes, and Droplet Generation Oil for EvaGreen®.
Multi-Plate Walk-Away Operation
Internal plate hotel holds multiple plates and provides an option for continuous operation.
RFID Scanner
Onboard RFID scanner and RFID-barcoded consumables allow fast and easy setup and ensure traceability.
Completed Plates Hotel
Stores used plates in an isolated plate chamber. Plates can be removed during operation.
Onboard Waste Management
Holds two closed waste bottles for continuous operation without contamination risk.

The Workflow
The QX ONE System streamlines the familiar ddPCR workflow by combining droplet generation, thermal cycling, and droplet reading into a single, fully automated process. Once you have selected your protocol, all you need to do is scan and load your plates and walk away.
