Image Station 4000R PRO
The Image Station 4000R PRO features an advanced automated configuration to minimize setup time and maximize efficiency. The 4-million pixel resolution, true16-bit imaging, automated high precision lens and automated emission filter system deliver easy-to-use, flexible and highly sensitive, quantitative capabilities for a wide range of in vitro assay formats. The versatile IS 4000R along with powerful MI Software delivers full control and superior image quality. Patented RadPADD accessory (optional) enables radioisotopic imaging.
Superior Image Quality
- Up to 10 micron/pixel resolution and more than 65,000 levels of grayscale resolution in a single capture for accurate intensity measurement
- Full illumination and lens correction algorithms minimize optical artifacts on images and data. Patented wide band emission filters eliminate image artifacts to enhance detection sensitivity and image quality
- Closed Optical Path Image (COPI) chamber isolates the optical path from laboratory contaminants
NEW Precision Automation
- Automated computer controlled configuration minimizes setup time, maximizing efficiency and throughput of measurements.
- The highly accurate automated lens system records the precise f-stop, zoom and focal plane parameters every time, ensuring complete reproducibility and traceability in the future without manual steps
- MI software recalls and automatically utilizes exact imaging parameters for generation of perfectly reproducible image settings
- Smart digital positioning technology with 4-position emission filters ensure precise positioning
Imaging Versatility
- State of the art cooled CCD camera technology and broad-band UV illumination allow sensitive, quantitative imaging of luminescent, UV-fluorescent and colorimetric labels. The optional patented RadPADD accessory enables radioisotopic imaging
- Designed for imaging of a wide range of in vitro assay formats, including membranes, plates, gels, and arrays
Fast, Convenient Workflow
- Live preview and parfocal optical design facilitates sample positioning and focusing
- Eliminate exposure trial and error with Predict Exposure and Auto Stop functions
- Automatically execute multiple exposure routines with Time Lapse and Progressive exposure modes
- Set up and save commonly used exposure routines for one click access
- Comprehensive Molecular Imaging software allows full control over camera as well as accurate quantitative analysis, including fragment sizing and mass determination; comparative intensity, geometry and positional analysis of multiple regions of interest; colony counting; annotations and more
