Carestream Molecular Imaging, a division of Carestream Health, Inc., released two gel imaging systems to advance its line of KODAK Gel Logic Systems for in vitro applications in life science research laboratories. The KODAK Gel Logic 112 and KODAK Gel Logic 212 Imaging Systems deliver improved image quality and data acquisition for documenting and analyzing electrophoresis gels, colormetric blots, plates, and more, according to the company.
Both systems are equipped with a scientific-grade 1.4 million-pixel CCD camera that can accumulate up to 14 bits of data—enabling users to extend the dynamic range to detect and quantify very dim as well as very bright signals (e.g. bands) in the same image. Additionally, software support has been added for the latest operating systems, including Macintosh OSX (version 10.5), Windows XP, and Windows Vista Professional.
KODAK Gel Logic: A System for Every Need
Carestream Molecular Imaging offers a complete line of gel imaging systems spanning the full spectrum of researchers’ image analysis needs, workflow requirements and budget parameters.
- The KODAK Gel Logic 112 is an economical, modular gel imaging system that delivers image quality and analysis performance.
- The KODAK Gel Logic 212 System—with its real-time preview, speed, and integrated illumination cabinet—is designed for medium-to-large labs where workflow, high-sample throughput, safety and high-quality image analysis is critical.
- The KODAK Gel Logic 212 System can also be upgraded to the KODAK Gel Logic 1500 and 2200 Imaging Systems—advanced systems for imaging a wide array of samples including chemiluminescence, fluorescence, and chromogenic gels, blots, and plates.
All KODAK Gel Logic systems ship with KODAK Molecular Imaging Software to optimize performance and quantitative analysis capabilities.
