Gel documentation systems - a short guide

Gel documentation systems or GelDocs are an integral part of any laboratory, no matter whether it is a clinical, diagnostic or research laboratory. GelDocs enable the measurement and recording of labelled DNA, RNA and protein fragments that have been separated according to their size and charge.

Blue/Green Light technology

Eliminate dangerous UV light in your workflow

Blue/Green Light Technology (Blue/Green LED) was developed to address two shortcomings of traditional visualization of nucleic acids using UV light: the danger which UV radiation poses to the operator and the damage inflicted by prolonged UV exposure upon DNA and RNA.

Blue/Green LED technology is completely safe to use and does not damage DNA. In addition, its excitation spectrum covers a wide range and not just a single wavelength, making it compatible with all available DNA stains.

Blue/Green LED advantages

  • Excitation of blue and red dyes
  • No degradation of DNA
  • No short wavelength radiation - safe for the user
  • Compatible with all DNA stains, including EtBr
