    摘要: An assembly is provided comprising a sample block configured to receive a plurality of sample vials, a plurality of Peltier thermal electric devices, a heat sink, and a memory device that stores data related to the assembly. Moreover, a system for performing polymerase chain reaction in a plurality of liquid reaction mixtures is provided, comprising a plurality of vials for containing a plurality of liquid reaction mixtures, the plurality of vials having an upper portion and a lower portion, such an assembly, the assembly being configured to cycle the plurality of vials through a series of temperature excursions, a cover configured to apply a seating force directly to the plurality of vials and to apply heat to the upper portion of the plurality of vials, and a computing apparatus configured to control the temperature excursions of the assembly and the heating of the cover. Moreover, a polymerase chain reaction device is provided, comprising such an assembly, wherein the assembly is configured to be removed from the polymerase chain reaction device. Finally, a method is provided of calibrating an assembly for cycling samples through a series of temperature excursions comprising a sample block for receiving vials, a plurality of Peltier thermal electric devices, a heat sink, and a memory device capable of storing data related to the assembly, the method comprising: applying power to the plurality of Peltier thermal electric devices, causing the assembly to cycle through a desired series of temperature excursions; measuring the actual temperature excursions; comparing the actual temperature excursions with the desired temperature excursions; adjusting the power applied to the plurality of Peltier thermal electric devices so that the actual temperature excursions match the desired temperature excursions; and recording data in the memory device for further utilization in obtaining said desired series of temperature excursions.
