3.1 Introduction
The Amersham ImageQuant 800 is an imaging instrument designed to detect and
quantify proteins, DNA, and other biological samples, such as bacterial colonies.
A cooled 8.3 megapixel CCD camera is used to capture high resolution digital images of
electrophoretically separated protein and DNA bands in gels or membranes obtained
through blotting methods. Use of the optional NP lens also allows for image capture
from multi-well plates and petri dishes.
The instrument can capture images of chemiluminescent, fluorescent, and colori-
metric samples, depending on the system configuration. It is also possible to capture
optical densitometry (OD) images of stained gels to accurately measure amount of
proteins in bands on a gel. Image files obtained from the instrument can also be
analyzed with the ImageQuant TL software.
For regulated environments, Amersham ImageQuant 800 GxP license is available for
Amersham ImageQuant 800 control software. Contact a Cytiva representative to
learn more about this option.
The instrument is designed to be used for research purposes in life science laborato-
ries within academia and industry.
