Gel Documentation Systems
|
|

Now includes the industry standard compact
flash drive plus an astonishing 5.6 inch TFT screen.
The
world’s simplest gel documentation system
• Flexible – use with any
transilluminator
• Portable and versatile with no
compromise on quality
• Ultra-compact, rapid and easy to use

UVIsave
Gel Documentation Systems
The UVIsave is
a simple portable system for printing an image or saving it as a TIFF
computer file. It is an ideal budget system where speed is important and
computer archiving is desirable. Works with any UV or white light
transilluminator.
Simply place camera hood over gel, optimise image whilst viewing it on
the built-in 4 inch LCD screen, freeze image, then print to video printer
or save on floppy disk.
With UVIsave,
you can adjust zoom, aperture, focus and integration time and see the
effects of the adjustments before image capture. This reduces the cost of
obtaining a satisfactory ‘hard copy’ image considerably. Also, since you
can see an instant preview of any image adjustments, the entire process
takes only seconds.
UVIsave
includes a disk-drive unit, which allows the captured image to be saved
in a TIFF format, opening up a wide range of modification, printing and
analysis options. A PC software package is supplied for this purpose.
Please
note a UV transilluminator is not included in the UVI save system but can
be purchased as an accessory.

UVIdoc
Gel Documentation Systems
UVIdoc and
UVIdocLCD are low cost documentation systems characterized by a
combination of simplicity and versatility. They operate as stand-alone
systems for producing high quality thermal prints of gel images. However,
the built-in disk drive unit also allows image capture direct to floppy
disk (as TIFF files). These can be loaded into the UVIdoc software
provided to enable image manipulation, annotation and simple analysis.
Saturation
monitoring of the live image ensures that fully quantifiable images may
be captured first time. The system can therefore be used on a variety of
levels, from simple hard copy generation, to more sophisticated image
acquisition for analysis.
A unique
feature for the UVIdoc is the addition of a network card into the
darkroom cabinet. This will enable the users to install UVIdoc onto their
local network for fast and easy access to images already stored on the
UVIdoc. Random access memory will allow 30 images to be stored for
transfer.

|
UVIdoc and UVIdocLCD
are very similar systems with one main difference. The UVIdocLCD has a
built-in 4 inch LCD screen which replaces the CCTV monitor supplied with
UVIdoc. All other features and functions are the same for both systems.
UVIdoc is also available with a larger DST15 darkroom and STS35M
(20x35cm) transilluminator allowing imaging of larger format gels.
UVIdoc is so simple to operate, there is no learning curve
involved and high quality images can be acquired in seconds. This,
combined with safety features, makes either UVIdoc ideal for environments
with a high number of regular or casual users. The user interface
includes a wipe-clean six-button key-pad conveniently positioned at eye
level. A safety-interlocking darkroom door protects the user from harmful
UV output. The safety, speed and robustness of UVIdoc have even made it
an essential tool in many teaching laboratories, the ultimate multi-user
environment!

UVIpro
Gel Documentation System
|
The UVIpro range is a series of highly
sophisticated gel documentation systems for top quality image capture and
analysis. Encompassing a comprehensive range of options from the basic
and inexpensive UVIpro Bronze to the state of the art UVIpro Platinum,
all UVIpro’s are operated from a PC with dedicated software and allow
very precise optimisation of the image prior to printing or analysis.
The basic UVIpro design includes a CCD
camera (with PCI acquisition card or firewire connection), darkroom
cabinet, UV transilluminator, zoom lens, uv/ir filter, thermal video
printer and acquisition/basic analysis software package. With choices of
camera, darkroom cabinet, zoom lens, filter and UV transilluminator,
UVIpro offers the broadest possible range of specifications and price.
|

|
|
The UVIpro range includes systems for
almost any fluorescence imaging application and budget. Comprising a
number of interchangeable modules, there are many choices of UVIpro, from
basic, inexpensive models up to the most advanced and sophisticated
systems available. For simplicity, the UVIpro range is divided into four
main models, Platinum, Gold, Silver and Bronze.
The top of the range UVIpro Platinum
incorporates the very best available options throughout. The DBT2000 is
the most advanced, efficient and versatile darkroom cabinet available,
while the superb quality 14-bit, ultra-high resolution camera is the best
available for gel documentation. The motorised zoom lens is easily
controlled from the user-friendly software screen and the standard filter
offers the highest signal to background ratio available for ethidium
bromide detection. These features combine to make UVIpro Platinum the
most advanced and sophisticated gel documentation system available
As with the stand-alone UVIdoc system,
UVIpro has all the benefits of speed and simplicity. With minimal
learning curve and intuitive, icon-driven software, a high quality print
out or TIFF file archive can be produced in seconds. UVIpro may be easily
used at a number of levels, ranging from simple push button operation to
highly precise image optimisation. The live image is viewed on the
computer screen and optimised via precise and user-friendly slider bar
controls.
