Biorad ChemiDoc M4 Imager
The ChemiDoc MP Imaging System is a full-feature instrument for imaging and analyzing gels and western blots. It is designed to address multiplex fluorescent western blotting, chemiluminescence detection, general gel documentation applications, and stain-free technology imaging needs.
Features and Benefits All-in-one flexible imaging — get precise, reproducible fluorescence, chemiluminescence, and colorimetric gel and blot detection, analysis and documentation in a single system.
Improve your imaging capabilities with the ChemiDoc MP — benefit from the advantages of using a wider range of fluorescent reporters (RGB, far red, and near infrared) including StarBright™ Fluorophores. Multiplex fluorescent western blotting — detect up to three proteins simultaneously and eliminate the need for stripping and re-probing.
Ease of use — features include automatic selection of optimal light source by application, auto focus, auto exposure, and preview features ensure optimal images. Learn in minutes with on screen help.
Stain-free protein normalization — stain-free imaging permits the normalization of bands to total protein in both in gels and blots; eliminates the need for housekeeping proteins.
Sample Trays and Smart Tray Technology™ — three sample trays available to cover diverse imaging applications. Smart Tray Technology automatically recognizes the application-specific trays and adjusts imaging parameters and software options accordingly.
For western blotting, the ChemiDoc™ MP V3 Western Workflow™ provides the ability to rapidly assess electrophoresis and blot transfer quality prior to blot processing, to perform total protein normalization and multiplexing using a wide range of fluorophores.
Applications and Uses Electrophoresis — protein, including stain-free, and nucleic acid gel imaging and documentation.
Blotting — identify and quantify proteins, nucleic acids, protein-ligand interactions, etc. with fluorescence, chemiluminescence, or colorimetric detection.
