3.1 Introduction
3.1 Introduction
Amersham Imager 600 is an imaging instrument designed to identify and quantify proteins or DNA in gels or membranes. A cooled 3.2 megapixel CCD camera is used to
capture high resolution digital images of protein and DNA bands in gels and on membranes obtained by electrophoresis or western blotting separation methods. The instrument can capture images of chemiluminescent, fluorescent, and colorimetric samples,
depending on the system configuration, and comes with analysis software.
The instrument can be used for research purposes in the academia and life sciences
industry.
