Primary Function:

The infrared scanner is used to scan any gel, membrane, or transparent plate in the infrared spectrum stained with appropriate dyes. There are 2 availble channels – red (700nm) and green (800nm). IRDyes can be commerically purchased for a variety of applications including DNA and RNA gels, Western Blots, and in-well fluorescence. The intutative software package makes data analysis simple and straight forward.

Features:

• Scan surface approximately 25cm * 25cm.

• Scan time can be adjusted based on depth of resolution required.

• 2 infrared channels can be run together or seperate (700nm and 800nm).

• Uses a diode laser.

Key Applications: Multiplex fluorescence detection, gel documentation, and biomarker quantification.
