1-D Analysis Software
The Quantity One software permits user-friendly control of the VersaDoc Imaging
System and accurate analysis of the captured image or data. Quantity One is
designed for operation in a Windows or Macintosh environment and supports fully
automated application-based image acquisition.
NOTE: Windows NT does not support USB therefore all WINDOWS NT based systems must use a
Serial Communications port.
The Quantity One package allows substantial flexibility in the presentation of captured
images and provides many tools for data analysis. These include molecular weight
determination, automated lane and band finding, accurate concentration analysis,
VNTR and differential display studies and colony counting. Please refer to the
Quantity One instruction manual for a full description of this software package.
2.3 Mechanical Description
The VersaDoc Imaging System is a modular system and it consists of the following
main hardware components. See figure 2.2.
1. The light tight enclosure, which integrates the sliding UV transillumination module,
two epi-illumination modules, chemiluminescence tray, access to the filter wheel,
lenses and all the electronics needed for controlling the lights and filterwheel.
2. The camera module, which integrates the cooled CCD camera.
3. Depending on which model of VersaDoc you have (1000, 3000, 4000 or 5000),
you will have the corresponding camera module but the light tight enclosure will
be the same.
4. VersaDoc is also available in a "LITE" versions (1000L, 3000L, 4000L or 5000L)
where no illumination sources are included. The unit is offered with a light tight
