Easy-to-use, yet powerful, software.
Bio Image Intelligent Quantifier® software is used by thousands of researchers across the world every day to provide accurate quantitation and analysis. The software is intuitive and easy to use, with built-in automation and workflow tools so you can quickly define protocols and run them easily and repetitively.
There's other instruments out there.
You can get a blue LED transilluminator with an orange filter plate. You can see bands and excise them. But that's all you get.
You can get a gel doc system with image capture and analysis software. But you'll have to move your samples out of the hood to cut bands.
Or you can get it all:
- Gel Excision
- Gel Doc
- Image Analysis
- ...and UNBEATABLE SENSITIVITY!

Their calibration strip is affixed to the underside of the platen. At first, this is great - it certainly is protected from wet gels or spills. But NIST states: "The optical densities of these step tablets may change over time." [NIST Report of Calibration 38120C Diffuse Transmittance]. What do you do then?
Bio Image calibration strips are both sealed to keep them free of any contamination, and behind a liquid-tight dam which surrounds the sample. So with our scanners, you simply order a new strip, and start using it.
