UVP has announced that the Biospectrum imaging system is now configured with the new Megacam 810 scientific-grade CCD camera, designed for use in proteomics and genomics imaging research.
The new camera enables enhanced image capture thanks to its dynamic 8.1-megapixel resolution and high-sensitivity capabilities.
The system captures fluorescence gel images, and researchers can also be assured that the camera's sensitivity captures the demanding chemiluminescent Western blots.
The camera's efficient ultra-cooled technology permits the capture of low-light blot emissions.
The Biospectrum's VisionworksLS software simplifies navigation thanks to simple one-touch controls for dynamic capture.
Automated configuration enables the selection of multiple ultraviolet, white and blue light sources as well as the control of the motorised platform and the selection of emission filters.
Emission filters include EtBr, SYBR Green and SYBR Gold filters as standard and are positioned in a motorised five-position filter tray.
Additional filters are available.
The system's capabilities can be expanded to multiplexing and bioluminescence imaging by adding a Biolite multi-spectral light source, which excites a range of stains.
