Description

UVP Biospectrum Imaging System

The UVP Biospectrum Western Blot Imager is a high-resolution chemiluminescent gel imager with built-in lighting and a light-tight darkroom. This easy-to-use imaging system has a VGA, software-triggered camera mounted in the darkroom, and it is perfectly positioned but easy to access. Below the camera area is the light-tight dark room, ideal for optimal imaging conditions, with overhead lighting and an adjusting platform. The functions of this darkroom are fully automated through the Vision Works ls software. From the front door, a UV-blocking viewing window allows users to check on the image without disrupting the environment.

The Western Blot Imaging System’s motorized platform quickly adjusts to any position within a 10-inch range for quick image acquisition and rapid processing and is completely automated through the software. Built-in epi lighting with a 365 nm UV lamp and 480nm blue and white light enables overhead excitation and illumination of samples. Samples are set on a 2 UV transilluminator (302 and 365 nm) for ultraviolet excitation and can be used with a chemo tray for placing chemiluminescent blots.

The filter wheel is 5-position and motorized, and the software allows users to select filters, tray height, and overhead lighting. The Vision Works software lets users process images and analyze gels, plates, and blots quickly and easily.
