faceshield ordering information.
Interchangeable Sample Plates
In addition to the 302nm UV transillumination provided by the built-in transilluminator, four
Interchangeable Sample Plates are available to provide additional transillumination options. Once in
place, these Plates can provide 460/470nm Visi-Blue blue, white, or 365nm longwave UV
transillumination. Included as standard is a solid, non-translucent black plate for placement of samples
which don’t require transillumination.
A Sample Plate Holder is available to store the Interchangeable Sample Plates neatly next to the
GelMax Imager. See “Replacement Parts and Accessories” for ordering information.
Ethidium Bromide (EtBr) Emission Filter
The ethidium bromide (50mm
square) UV-blocking bandpass interference filter blocks UV and IR
radiation emitted from the transilluminator. The filter is placed in the slide-out filter wheel on the side of
the Imager. The filter allows visualization of fluorophores from 580-630nm, targeting the ethidium
bromide emission peak of 605nm.
Additional and custom filters are available for other specific fluorophores. See “Replacement Parts and
Accessories” or contact UVP for ordering information.
Fluorescent Focus Target
The UVP Fluorescent Focus Target fluoresces when placed
on the UV transilluminator. The Target provides sharp
fluorescent images to aid in adjusting the lens and camera
settings for ideal imaging results.
