Western blot imaging has never been so easy than with the GeneGnome XRQ. The system automatically selects the right imaging conditions for any blot irrespective of the chemiluminescent reagents being used. All chemiluminescence applications can easily be handled by the GeneGnome XRQ and can produce superb images even from the faintest of signals.
The compact instrument sits on any laboratory bench taking up very little space. The GeneGnome XRQ requires an external PC for use.
The system comes complete with unlimited copies of GeneTools analysis software.
Features
- Optimised - for imaging chemiluminescence Western blots
- GeneGnome XRQ is configured for maximum sensitivity to ensure even the faintest band on a blot can be captured.
- Sensitive cooled camera
- The high quantum efficiency cooled CCD camera is very sensitive to low level light emissions from a blot. The peltier cooled camera has exceptional ‘signal to noise’ performance resulting in virtually undetectable background noise. The short ‘camera to sample’ distance further enhances the ability to work with chemiluminescence samples and reagents. When compared to film, the GeneGnome XRQ has more than double the dynamic range. This allows for extremely accurate quantification.
- Small footprint
- The GeneGnome XRQ has a very small footprint and takes up minimal bench space. The automatic slide-out drawer allows easy sample handling. The fixed aperture and focus of the lens results in a very simple set-up procedure making image capture as simple as a click of a mouse button.
