Our lab is in the east,
We are plan to buy a RT PCR,
AB or roche,
Normally how much we will cost for AB 7500 or roche 480?
Is there university discount?
Thanks!

Your best bet will be to talk to a representative of the company that makes/sells the items you are looking at. There are also sites such as Biocompare that may be useful for you.

For ABI 7500FAST system the standard quoted price is ~$46,000. Academia may have discount.

Yes getting quotes from different vendors is probably the best approach.
I have used the biorad instrument and the AB step one plus. I prefer the step one plus for it s ease of use and the software is also very user friendly. About the price I think the AB step one plus is around $40,000.
Hope this helps

There is a fine line between persistence and obstinacy. I have come to realize the key is to choose a problem that is worth persistent effort.

We are using real-time PCR from Stratagene
It is relatively cheap and works fine
