Launch Of Syngene’s Pxi High Performance Image Analysis System for Perfect Chemi Blots and Gel Imaging

26 Apr 2012

Product news

Syngene, a world-leading manufacturer of image analysis solutions is delighted to introduce PXi, a new high resolution, multi-application image analysis system. This powerful system is designed to be the best in its class for scientists that want a compact, one-click method for accurately imaging chemiluminescent and fluorescent blots, as well as 1-D gels (up to 10cm x 12 cm) stained with any type of fluorescent dye.

The innovatively designed compact PXi, with its high resolution 6.3 million pixel camera and large fixed aperture lens can quickly image even the faintest bands. It is easy to fit a range of lighting including IR lighting and filter options inside the PXi system and by using Syngene’s intuitive GeneSys imaging software, the PXi can be rapidly set up to automatically select the best conditions. Scientists can generate perfect images of chemiluminescent blots, as well as 1-D gels (up to 10cm x 12cm) stained with any fluorescence and IR commercial dyes time after time, with just one-click.

GeneTools, Syngene’s accurate image analysis software, which comes with the PXi saves valuable time by automatically producing results in seconds, including; 1-D lane analysis, molecular weight and quantity calculations.

Laura Sullivan, Syngene’s Divisional Manager stated: “Syngene is well known for its imaging innovation and using the technology from our popular G:BOX, we have really pulled out all the stops by developing a unique high performance imaging system. The system is so compact, yet produces exceptional images of every type of chemi blot, as well as fluorescent blots and gels.”

G:BOX Chemi XX6

Syngene

G:BOX Chemi XX6 gel imaging system has a high resolution camera for imaging multiple sample types and sizes, from fluorescence 1D to 2D gels to chemiluminescent blots. Your lab’s imaging system shouldn’t control how you detect proteins on Western blots. Chemiluminescence is great if you want sensitive detection of picogram or femtogram amounts, while fluorescence lets you quantify and detect multiple different proteins on one blot.

Western BlottingWestern blotting equipment is used to transfer and identify specific proteins within a sample, reveal protein modifications, as well as give a semi-quantitative estimation of their concentration. Western blotting equipment includes all apparatus necessary to transfer proteins from gel to membrane and subsequent processing steps. Protein transfer can be performed by electroblotting with wet, semi-dry and dry transfer systems onto nitrocellulose and PVDF membranes. Blocking, washing and labeling of membranes follows, involving buffers, blocking reagents, blotting / incubation trays, labeling reagents, immunoblotting assays, antibodies and conjugates. Automated equipment for these steps is available to accelerate your lab workflow. Finally, detection and imaging of proteins can be conducted using gel documentation and imaging systems.
