The ChemiDoc XRS+ System is based on CCD high-resolution, high-sensitivity detection technology and modular options to accommodate a wide range of samples and support multiple detection methods including fluorescence, colorimetry, densitometry, chemiluminescence, and chemifluorescence. The system is controlled by Image Lab software to optimize imager performance for fast, integrated, and automated image capture and analysis of various samples.

The system accommodates a wide array of samples, from large handcast polyacrylamide gels to small ReadyAgarose Gels and various blots.

Takeaway printouts of your image are available from a digital monochrome printer attached to the instrument.

Maximum image area: up to 26 x 35 cm.

We have a white light conversion screen available to use with colorimetric gels such as Coomassie and silver stain.
