Thermocycling device with different temperature zones and a rotating PCR chip. Left: A schematic drawing illustrates the arrangement of the heating elements (Ta = annealing temperature) and the fluorescence detector. A rotating chip passes each zone and at 72 °C the fluorescence signal is measured. The right image shows the lab set-up, including the driving motor and temperature control
