Abstract

Provided is a PCR heating block having heaters repeatedly arranged thereon is capable of preventing the radial thermal distribution generated from the individual heaters and the non-uniform heat superposition between the adjacent heaters improve the PCR yield and further capable of requiring no separate temperature controlling mechanism to achieve the miniaturization and integration of a device. Furthermore, a PCR device is capable of amplifying a plurality of nucleic acid samples at the same time and rapidly by using a PCR heating block on which heater units are repeatedly arranged and a plate-shaped PCR reaction unit and also capable of measuring successively generated optical signals electrochemical signals to in real time check the nucleic acid amplification.
