Overview

The Mullis (named after Kary Mullis, winner of the Nobel Prize for PCR)is a project of the State College Reprap Users Group. It is an open source, RepRap based PCR machine. (For more on PCR, see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PCR ). The design uses a readily available tray for PCR, which is carried back and forth between two heated containers. It is easily switched from an Open Hybrid Mendel, or a Prusa Mendel.
