The CSL Microdoc gel-documentation system is available with software and a choice of transilluminators in 21 x 21cm or 21 x 26cm sizes.
The Microdoc high-resolution 32-bit RGB system incorporates the latest Canon digital camera, which is capable of producing high-quality images with resolution up to 14.7 mega pixels.
The Microdoc system is designed for optimum flexibility and enables a variety of images to be viewed from a larger high-definition 8in TFT liquid-crystal colour display.
These images can be captured from agarose gels, other fluorescent gels, colorimetric gels, auto-radiography film and blotting membranes.
The Microdoc includes a 55mm ethidium bromide filter with a built-in safety switch to allow the UV Transilluminator to be turned off when the door is open, while files can be saved in a variety of formats ready for transfer to computer systems for storage and further analysis.
The system includes a 2GB flash card and reader, providing double the previous image capacity and enabling easy data transfer.
Printing can be performed directly from Microdoc using the included USB cable, which also permits direct connection to a computer.
The system will be particularly suited to laboratories where space and budgets are limited, as it can be used independently of a PC.
For added convenience, printing of saved or live images can be performed directly from the Microdoc.
Cleaver Scientific can also supply thermal printers, such as the Mitsubishi P93 Series.
