New image analyser for high performance chemiluminescent and fluorescent imaging saves time by generating quicker, more accurate results
Syngene announces the availability of the ChemiGenius Classic, its affordable multi-purpose image analyser.
The new system saves time by generating quicker, more accurate results with chemiluminescent and fluorescent imaging applications.
The ChemiGenius Classic, which has been designed to make it both safe and simple to operate has a new software-controlled, true 16-bit CCD cooled camera in its own light-tight darkroom with built-in UV and white light illumination.
The benefit of using a 16-bit camera is that users can save time by capturing over 65,000 grey levels in real time, ensuring they can rapidly acquire images of virtually undetectable chemiluminescent or fluorescent bands. This multi-use system comes complete with Syngene's intuitive, one-click GeneTools analysis software, for a wide variety of chemiluminescent and fluorescent applications.
These include 1-D lane analysis, 2-D spot densitometry, Rf/molecular weight calculations, band matching and multi-layer gel analysis. For those scientists working with a number of different fluorescent dyes, the ChemiGenius Classic can be made even more versatile by adding a computer-controlled, four-position filter wheel.
Paul Ellwood, Syngene's sales and marketing director, commented: "By popular demand, we have added the ChemiGenius Classic, a true 16-bit image analyser to our highly successful Genius range.
With its low introductory price and extensive chemiluminescent options, the ChemiGenius Classic is a cost effective system for discerning scientists that need to capture and analyse images of just about any gel or blot, and will become an industry standard which others will try to follow."
