Select your
UV filter |
Select based on resolution required and cost effectiveness. If using UVB or UVC tubes, select the Optical Glass Bandpass Filter. |
Diffusing Plastic Filter
(only for UVA light)Good resolution, Low cost
# TIGVS-FP2020 |
Optical Glass Bandpass Filter
(for UVA, UVB or UVC light)Best resolution, High cost
# TIGVS-FG2020 |
| Do you need an EPI white light |
Select this if your application requires photographing stained protein gels or for positioning the gel prior to image capture |
Yes
# TIGVS-EPWHLD |
No |
| Do you need an EPI UV light |
Epi illumination can be opted for visualising TLC plates, gels or other applications. You can select upto any 2 of the UV lights |
Epi UVA light
366 nm
To view natural or derivatized fluorescence on TLC plates
# TIGVS-EPUVA8 |
Epi UVB light
310 nm
Good for visualising DNA. Not commonly used for TLC plates
# TIGVS-EPUVB8 |
Epi UVC light
254 nm
For visualising fluorescence on universal quenching indicator TLC plates
# TIGVS-EPUVC8 |
| Select if Auto cut-off of UV light is needed? |
To prevent UV exposure, Auto cut-off shuts off UV when the door is opened. Do not select this if bands need to be excised with the door open. |
Yes
# TIGVS-D0R0FF |
No |
| Do you need a UV shield |
For applications that involve excising bands from gel while the UV is on, a UV shield is recommended. The UV shield cannot be used with UV light shutting feature. |
Yes
# TIGVS-UVSHLD |
No |
| Do you need a Hi-Low intensity control? |
>You can set the UV light intensity on low to prevent fading or bleaching of the DNA bands and for longer exposure times |
Yes
# TIGVS-UVHIL0 |
No |
