Low Light Imaging of Reactive Oxidative Species (ROS) at Wound Sites Using Luminol
29 Aug 2013This application note describes the in vivo use of luminol to monitor the generation of ROS, specifically due to the inflammatory response mounted by phagocytic cells. The iBox® Scientia™ Small animal Imaging System was used for real-time imaging of ROS generation by inflammatory cells. Results demonstrate the iBox Scientia to be a powerful tool for imaging disease processes within an in vivo model.

Gel Doc / Image AnalysisGel documentation (gel doc) or gel imaging systems are used for the analysis of proteins, antibodies and nucleic acid immobilized in polyacrylamide or agarose gels, membranes or microarrays. Explore a range of a gel imaging systems, densitometers, scanners, transilluminators or UV lamp + CCD cameras for your image analysis solutions. Colorimetric, fluorescent and/or radioisotopic samples can be visualized and documented for further analysis. See gel doc / Image analysis software for quantitative 1D and 2D analysis of your samples.
