The ChemiDoc-It2 Imaging System provides a dynamic instrument for capturing picture-perfect chemiluminescent blot and fluorescent gel images. Select from several cameras that utilize cooling in the detection of chemiluminescence Western blot and other imaging samples requiring high sensitivity and camera cooling.
Choice of cooled CCD cameras for high sensitivity gel and blot image capture
-Cameras include Biochemi 510 Camera, offering resolution of 2.1MP extendable to 7.4MP, OptiChemi 610 with 3.2MP resolution extendable to 9.6MP and MegCam 810 Camera with 8.1 MP resolution
Zoom lens: motorized or manual
Light tight darkroom creates the optimum conditions for chemiluminescence blots
Darkroom features overhead white light, large access door and unique gel viewing window
Chemi tray for placement of blots on the non-reflective black surface
Filter tray features four positions for adding additional filters as needed; EtBr filter included
Slide out tray holds UV transilluminator
Select from several benchtop, patented and awarding winning transilluminator models (configured with system or optional)
VisionWorksLS Acquisition and Analysis Software
Modular design
-Add the BioLite™ MultiSpectral Light Source which utilizes high intensity lighting in conjunction with fiber optic guides to a supply powerful, directed illumination of fluorescent stained samples inside the ChemiDoc-It2. A wide range of excitation and emission filters enable a wide spectral range of wavelengths.
-Add additional emission filters, epi UV lights, white light plate or UV converter plates to maximize gel fluorescence capabilities
-Optional white light LED plate plugs into the darkroom for uniform white light illumination; convenient storage pocket on the darkroom
Transillumination
The transilluminator is placed on the sliding tray for easy access for placement of samples
Select from several models with single UV or multiple UV wavelengths and filter sizes up to 25 x 26 cm
To fluoresce samples in the 460-470mm range, place the optional Visi-Blue Plate over the transilluminator surface
To visualize Coomassie blue and silver stained samples, place the optional UV to White Light Converter Plate on top of the transilluminator or use the LED white light plate which plugs into the darkroom
Epi Illumination
White light epi illumination built in
Add UV modules for overhead UV illumination; modules are positioned on two sides of the darkroom
Chemiluminescent Imaging
MegaCam 810, OptiChemi 610 and Biochemi 510 cameras are cooled CCD cameras recommended for chemiluminescent imaging
For Western blot and other chemiluminescent blots applications, place blots on the removable chemi tray
For western blot imaging applications, refer to the article titled "Ultra-Rapid and Ultra-Sensitive Detection of Proteins in Chemiluminescent Western Blotting".
