Abstract:
A system for thermal cycling a sample utilizing electrolyte conductance heating. An electric current is passed through the sample to increase its temperature due to resistance heating. As the sample acquires more thermal energy its viscosity changes, which causes a change in resistance. Because of this characteristic, temperature of the sample can be measured as a function of resistance and temperature can be controlled using resistance of the solution as feedback to a circuit which controls the heating of the sample by electrical conductance.
