Window to the World of Gels

UVP, LLC is pleased to announce a unique upgrade to its PhotoDoc-It Imaging Systems for visualising gel images. Users can now observe fluorescent gels in the system via the unique viewport window. The window, mounted into the hood, blocks UV and allows researchers to safely see the gels when illuminated by the UV transilluminator.

The PhotoDoc-It Imaging System includes a high resolution 8.0 megapixel digital colour camera for capturing brilliant colour images. The camera attaches to the lightweight hood that sits on the transilluminator. No computer is required with this compact, stand-alone system. A small coloUr printer connects directly to the camera supplying economical, lab quality 4” x 6” prints in seconds.

“The PhotoDoc-It Imaging System is configured for limited laboratory space and is designed as an economical replacement for Polaroid systems. The new viewer window allows researchers to see the fluorescently stained gels prior to capturing the images,” stated Alex Waluszko, Vice President for Marketing and Sales at UVP.
