Electrophoresis Gel Digital Imaging System – High Stability
The Bio-5050 scanner from Microtek is specifically designed to capture images of biological samples on electrophoresis gel films. It offers outstanding performance features, including a 48-bit color depth, a high optical resolution of 4800 dpi, an ultra-wide optical density range from 0.01D to 3.4D, high stability performance with a CV value of 0.5%, and an automatic image focusing system. These features enable the Bio-5050 to capture color images of electrophoresis gel films with precision and stability, thereby ensuring the highest scanning quality and image stability.
Additionally, the Bio-5050 provides a key feature that allows users to periodically scan the same gel film, capturing images of the sample at different time points. This results in a continuous series of images showing changes in the sample over time, making it a valuable tool for further time-series analysis and biological research.
In the field of biotechnology, the high efficiency and stability of the Bio-5050 position it as an ideal choice, making it an indispensable component in the digitalization process of electrophoresis experiments.
