Syngene™ G:BOX Chemi XRQ

G:BOX Chemi XRQ is a versatile gel documentation system for large blots and gels

• High performance imaging has been proven to achieve comparable sensitivity to film with the added benefit of using advanced software tools to optimise the imaging of faint bands.
• Capable of many imaging applications including:
  • DNA/Protein gels
  • Chemiluminescence
  • Stain free gels
  • Coloured multiplex fluorescence blots
  • 2D gels
  • In Vivo applications (additional accessories may be needed)
• There is a Peltier cooled, high resolution 16 bit camera (with 65535 grey scales) capable of producing 4 MP images.
• Camera chip is a leader in the field with a QE of 73% at 425 nm (peak 77%).
• F1.2 motorized zoom lens (with feedback) for short acquisition times.
• Comes with a seven position filter wheel and epi white light
• Lighting is upgradable to include additional LED lighting for red, green, blue and near-IR imaging which gives capability for fluorescence imaging (additional accessories will need to be purchased)
• The maximum viewing area available is 22.7 x 30.5 cm.
• PC required (not included)

GeneSys is an application driven software designed for rapid image capture of biological samples. It has a simple icon based user interface usable on Win 10, 8 and 7 platforms.

• Takes the guess work out of imaging, and produces quick and simple publication quality images.
• All files produced are a unique SGD format, where only raw data is analysed for quantification of samples.
• Files can also be saved as TIFF, JPEG, BMP formats.
• User protocols can be saved to review previous images captured, and easily replicate future imaged gels.
• All captured images can be simply edited with annotations, edit tools, image sharpen and exported to GeneTools.

GeneTools software provides the user with rapid quantification of samples and goes from blots to analysed data in a few quick steps. Analysis sample types include:

• Molecular weight
• Colony counting
• Spot blot
• Band matching.

All samples can be quantified, including multiplexed protein fluorescence analysis of up to 5 samples at once. Raw data files can be quickly quantified to produce true data for publication data. High quality reports can be exported in Word and Excel files for simple review.

Both GeneSys and GeneTools software meet the requirements for 21 CFR Part 11 and GLP environments.

The system comes with a 3 year warranty (return to factory), unlimited licences of GeneTools analysis software and twice annual free software updates.
