For our new device, the consumable products will come premeasured to ensure accuracy. A set of eight PCR test tubes containing the predetermined 50 μL of PRC mixture (containing the TAQ polymerase) will be provided along with pre-labeled test tubes with 50 μL of DNA. Besides this, the kit will come with the necessary pipette, sterile pipette tips, and gloves. | |||

The inclusion of premeasured consumables is meant to prevent any human error in the PCR process. With the tubes of 50 μL PCR mix, the individual will only have to pipette the DNA samples into the mix and not worry about the amount of PCR mixture. Besides this, the test tubes, both for the primer mixture and DNA are labeled to prevent any confusion or cross contamination. The tubes for both the PCR mixture and DNA will correspond. | |||

Computer-Aided DesignTinkerCAD TinkerCAD is an online product design service that allowed us to replicate the structure of the OpenPCR machine. Using the building blocks given to us through the website thingiverse.com, we re-created a PCR pachine virtually. We then modified this basic structure to incorporate some of the changes we felt would better the device. Our Design
Feature 1: Consumables KitFor our new device, the consumable products will come premeasured to ensure accuracy.
