The Sensitivity of Film at an Economical Price
With the Azure 280, performance and affordability go hand-in-hand, putting sensitive digital chemiluminescent detection within reach of most individual labs.
Get the same sensitivity as chemiluminescent detection on film, but without the hassles of a darkroom and the expense of a bulky film developer.
Image acquisition is as easy as placing your blot into the instrument and pressing a button—no more wasting time testing multiple film exposures to get the best image.
Ask for upgrade options to visible and IR Western Blot Imaging.
Product Features
- High performance digital chemiluminescent imaging eliminates the need for a darkroom—enjoy short imaging times, picogram sensitivity
- Application Flexibility—image DNA gels (EtBr, SYBR® Safe, and other “safe” dyes) and protein gels (Coomassie and silver stain) as well as chemiluminescent blots
- Easy analysis—included AzureSpot software automates many common tasks for quick and easy image capture and quantitation
- 4.8 OD Dynamic Range
