iBright™ CL1500 Imaging System Thermo Fisher

This tool allows the acquisition of multimodal images of membranes and agarose gels, and their analysis through a touchscreen interface and advanced integrated software. This makes the acquisition of images of proteins and nucleic acids, detected through chemiluminescent, fluorescent, and colorimetric substrates, more efficient.
