New perspective on Western blot imaging

Aplegen is a new face on the gel documentation market and has introduced Omega Lum W for multicolour R, G, B and chemiluminescence imaging. This small-footprint system breaks the mould of traditional heavy and cumbersome gel documentation systems by utilising innovative design and incorporating an integral tablet for control. This compact package sits neatly on any laboratory bench ready to image gels, Western blots or multiplexing multi-coloured blots at the click of a button.

At the heart of any gel documentation system is a quality camera and with the Omega Lum W comes one of the best. A massive 8.4 megapixel scientific-grade cooled CCD camera coupled with an f/0.95 motorised lens, and six-position filter wheel that gives the system outstanding power and performance. This combination provides the highest sensitivity and signal capture for perfect imaging, low background and a wide dynamic range for accurate quantification.

This fully equipped system includes Total Lab analysis software, dual wavelength transilluminator, white light, EPI blue and EPI LEDs at 457, 530 and 628 nm. Emission filters for orange, red, green and blue come as standard. This fully configured system means that users are not concerned about selecting the right options as everything needed comes as standard.
