A compact, fast, easy-to-use CCD camera imaging system for chemiluminescence Western blotting, colorimetric, and UV fluorescence image capture.
Amersham ImageQuant™ 500 is a cooled CCD camera with Fujifilm optics for chemiluminescent Western blot imaging, blue/UV based DNA and protein stains, and white-light imaging of colorimetric stains and markers.
Sensitive: detect pictograms levels of sample with chemiluminescence.
Compact integrated design: built-in touchscreen lets you work independently of a dedicated PC, has a small footprint that fits neatly on any lab bench.
Automatic color overlay function: simultaneously image and overlay chemiluminescent samples and colored molecular weight markers, making molecular weight determination easy.
Flexible image storage: store images on a USB memory stick, on the system, or in a network connection folder.
Easy-to-use: auto, semi-auto, and increment exposure modes with a user-friendly touchscreen operation helps you take the best possible image.
Speed: ready to operate in less than five minutes with the rapid cooling CCD camera.
Easy to set up: just unpack, power up, and start!
Together with ImageQuant™ TL image analysis software, the ImageQuant™ 500 system offers an affordable high-performance solution for gel and blot analysis workflows.
Ready for use in less than five minutes
ImageQuant™ 500 imager consists of a touchscreen, sample chamber, USB port, camera, and light sources. The 8.3-megapixel CCD camera is ready for use in less than five minutes. Reliable Peltier (thermoelectric) cooling combined with binning significantly reduces noise levels and improves both the sensitivity and linearity of the system.
