Gel Documentation: 1-D Electrophoresis

   
   
 
 
The fast and reliable documentation of gel-electrophoresis experiments is one of the most frequently applied bioimaging techniques in molecular biology labs today.

Most important dyes in use are Ethidium bromide, Sybr green and Sybr gold for DNA and RNA and Rhuthenium or Sypro- dyes for proteins. Commassie- and silver- staining are colorimetric methods used in gel-documentation.


raytest provides a wide product range for Gel-documentation. The specialists for this applications are Kodak Gel Logic 100 and Gel Logic 200. The systems combines easy handling, compact design, thermal printout option and digital storage with a very competitive price

More advanced imaging systems such as Stella and Kodak Gel logic 2200 provide additionally optimized features for precise measurement and evaluation applications and for multilabelling with dyes of different wavelengths. With the variable excitation unit, raytest has a unique system for fluorescence applications with different distinct wavelengths of the visible light spectrum.
