Introduction
The GelDoc-It
TS2
Imager is a high resolution imager capable of capturing, documenting and analyzing
fluorescent gel images.
In addition to gel documentation capabilities, the ChemiDoc-It
TS2
Imager is equipped with a cooled,
scientific-grade CCD camera allowing users to capture, document and analyze chemiluminescent blot
images, including Western blots.
The GelDoc-It
TS2
and ChemiDoc-It
TS2
are self-contained imaging systems with a built-in 15.6” touch screen
and computer. Additionally, the systems incorporate a light-tight darkroom with TS2 Software for image
acquisition.
The darkroom has a UV-blocking gel viewer window, built-in overhead epi white lighting, a UV
transilluminator and a five-position slide-out emission filter wheel with an ethidium bromide (EtBr) emission
filter included as standard. Save images to the internal hard drive, to an external USB storage device or to a
network drive for later quantitative analysis or enhancement for publication.
