The Bio-Rad Gel Doc 2000, ChemiDoc and the ChemiDoc XRS Gel Documentation systems are easy-to-use, high-performance systems. They use a CCD camera to capture images in real time, which allows you to more accurately position and focus the image. While using Bio-Rad TDS Quantity One software, acquired images can be optimized, annotated, analyzed, and printed to a video printer or your local or network printer. The Bio-Rad Gel Doc 2000, ChemiDoc and the ChemiDoc XRS systems utilize a Universal Hood that is light tight, it contains UV and Epi-white light sources and all the power supplies needed to
operate the Gel and ChemiDoc cameras. The ChemiDoc XRS camera has its own power supply.
The Bio-Rad Universal Hood is designed to capture fluorescence and chemiluminescence images without using a photographic darkroom. The cabinet has a built-in white light Epi-illumination and a UV transilluminator. The drawer of the cabinet accommodates the built-in UV transilluminator. The lights in the darkroom cabinet turn off automatically after about 15 minutes. This time period can be extended indefinitely by pressing the HOLD button. The Universal Hood comes with a built-in UV transilluminator that has a 302-nm UV wavelength to excite most fluorescent dyes used for gel imaging applications.
CCD Camera
A CCD camera is placed on top of the Universal Hood for capturing images. The camera comes with a Motorized Zoom Lens (MZL) that allows a remote adjustment of the lens control functions viz. Zoom, Focus and Iris.
Darkroom Cabinet
The Universal Hood is designed to capture fluorescence and chemiluminescence images without using a photographic darkroom. The cabinet has a built-in white light Epi-illumination, a UV transilluminator and an optional white light transilluminator or a white light conversion screen. The drawer of the cabinet accommodates the built-in UV transilluminator
The lights in the darkroom cabinet turn off automatically after about 15 minutes. This time period can be extended indefinitely by pressing the HOLD button. The Universal Hood comes with a built-in UV transilluminator that has a 302-nm UV wavelength to excite most fluorescent dyes used for gel imaging applications. For White light applications, an optional UV/White light conversion screen (170-7940) or White light transilluminator (170-7950) are available.
Software
The software package that comes with the Gel Documentation systems (TDS Quantity One) can be used to annotate and document images, analyze molecular weights, video print, and perform a host of other applications.
Thermal Printer (Optional)
The recommended thermal printer to be used with the Gel Documentation systems is the Mitsubishi P-91W with 256 gray levels.
