Automatic molecular imaging system Amersham™ Typhoon™

for gel documentationfor Western blottissue

Typhoon™ biomolecular imagers deliver exceptional data quality by utilizing highly sensitive detection, high image resolution, and a broad linear dynamic range. Typhoon™ laser scanners have been the researcher’s trusted choice for various applications for decades including: Phosphor imaging for sensitive radioactive detection of DNA, RNA and other biomolecules. Florescence imaging in RGB and NIR wavelengths for imaging of gels and blots- Northern, Southern, Western blotting, 2D DIGE, etc. High resolution tissue section imaging using florescence or radioactive probes. Special applications like microarrays, tissue section imaging, Gel-shift assays (EMSA) and scanning of multiwell plates that require high resolution, sensitivity & large scan area. Ideal for core facilities, the Typhoon™ scanners are fully flexible in their configurations with four models to chose from. Typhoon™ laser scanners are easily upgradable allowing you to invest wisely in the features you need today whilst future-proofing your lab for tomorrow’s needs. Key Features Accurate quantitation: detect signals from as low as 3 pg of protein and differences across a dynamic range with greater than five orders of magnitude High resolution: resolve fine details in your sample with a pixel resolution of as low as 10 μm High sample throughput: large scanning area of 40 × 46 cm enables the simultaneously imaging of up to 20 gels or blots, measuring 10 × 8 cm in size, or up to 9 multiwell plates in a single scan Versatile: one system to image multifluorescent-,radioisotope-labeled, and colorimetric samples on gels, membranes, multiwell plates, culture dishes, glass slides, and tissue sections
