GE Healthcare - Amersham Imager 600 Series
A sensitive and robust chemiluminescence imager for high-resolution digital imaging of protein and DNA samples in gels and membranes.
Amersham Imager 600 is equipped for chemiluminescence imaging and includes an automatic overlay function, which allows simultaneous imaging of a chemiluminescent sample and a colored molecular weight marker.
Intuitive Digital Imagers for High-Quality Results
Amersham Imager 600 series is equipped with a dark sample cabinet, a camera system, filter wheel, light sources, and a built-in computer with control and analysis software. High resolution and precise quantitation of low signals are achieved using a multipurpose 16-bit, 3.2 megapixel super-honeycomb CCD camera fitted with a large aperture f/0.85 FUJINON™ lens. Rapid cooling of the detector makes the imager ready-to-use in less than 5 minutes.
Amersham Imager 600 series is backed by GE Healthcare’s expertise in Western blotting and electrophoresis applications, and can grow with your imaging needs. The system comes in four fully upgradable configurations based on equipped combinations of light sources and filters. All systems can be used for chemiluminescent detection and non-quantitative gel documentation.
