The potential of Real-Time PCR was recognized by TIB Molbiol immediately upon its introduction in 1997. The company focused on this new technology by researching new application approaches and experimenting with different technical formats.

In 1998 Boehringer Mannheim (now Roche) introduced the LightCycler® Real-Time PCR Instrument. Based on the novel detection format of HybProbes and an innovative thermal cycling technology, the instrument revolutionized Real-Time PCR not only by speeding up the process but also by the versatility of possible experimental applications. TIB Molbiol embraced the new chemistry of HybProbes and embarked with Boehringer Mannheim in a mutual effort to increase the application scope and attractiveness of the instrument.
