Imaging modalities based on light source selection:
UV 302: For dyes that are UV excitable (No EtBr please)
UV 365: For cutting bands out of gel
EPI Blue: For dyes excitable in the “blue light” range (SYBR green)
Visible: For dyes that do not require additional excitation- will require Orange Tray
ChemiLuminescence: will require chemitray
RGB: For fluorescent Western blots labeled with (“Far Red”-Cy5/”Red”-Cy3/”Green”-Cy2 or dyes with similar excitation and emission spectrums: will require chemitray
Near Infrared (NIR): For Western blots labeled with NIR dyes: will require chemitray
Custom: You can modify the focus, exposure, light source, and use these in combination to create your own custom capture settings.
