Description:

12 Channel Oligo Synthesizer is a laboratory instrument used to synthesize DNA or RNA sequences, often referred to as oligos, which are typically short strands of nucleotides. The English specifications for such a device might include:

1. Channels: The synthesizer has 12 independent synthesis channels, allowing for the simultaneous synthesis of up to 12 unique oligonucleotides, thereby improving lab efficiency.

2. Synthesis Capabilities: It can synthesize oligos ranging from a few bases to hundreds of bases in length with high accuracy and purity, usually at a scale suitable for molecular biology applications (e.g., PCR primers, probes, siRNA).

3. Automation: Automated synthesis process with computer-controlled software that allows for precise control over reagent delivery, coupling time, and detritylation steps.

4. Chemistry Support: Supports standard phosphoramidite chemistry for DNA/RNA synthesis, with options for modified nucleotides if applicable.

5. Column Configuration: Each channel has its own dedicated synthesis column or reactor where solid-phase synthesis occurs.

6. Precision Dispensing: Advanced dispensing systems ensure accurate delivery of reagents including acylating agents, activators, and deprotection solutions.

7. Cleavage and Deprotection: In-built or external cleavage and deprotection modules for finalizing the synthesized oligos.

8. Washing System: A thorough washing system between each synthesis cycle to ensure high-quality products.

9. Control Software: User-friendly software interface for designing and programming the synthesis, monitoring progress, and analyzing results.

10. Quality Control: May include features like real-time UV monitoring for quantification and quality assessment during synthesis.

11. Compatibility: Compatibility with various types of resins for solid-phase synthesis, and potentially with different scales of synthesis (microscale to small scale).

12. Safety Features: Integrated safety measures such as fume hood compatibility, waste disposal systems, and error alerts to minimize risk and ensure user safety.
