Taking Images using a white light source (optional)
Taking images of protein gels
Recording images of protein gels or petri dishes are
possible by adding a white light source and removing
the FastGene
®
amber filter from the lens. The
procedure is shown in the next steps
Exposing the filter
Extend the lens barrel by zooming out. The lens is
now exposed and the filter is ready to be removed.
The filter is screwed on the lens. A magnetic filter
holder (MFH) can be purchased separately (e.g. MFH).
After removing the filter, add the white light source
(e.g. FG-07CE).
Removing the filter
After zooming out, you can remove the amber filter
from the lens, by using 2 fingers, as shown in the left
image. Turn the filter anticlockwise. The amber filter
should now be stored in a safe, clean storage space
and be added as soon as the image is taken. To add
the filter to the lens, turn the filter clockwise.
White Light Transilluminator
Add the white LED transilluminator (not included) to
the central area of the Blue/Green LED
Transilluminator DE as shown in the picture and place
the cover plate on the observation window. Turn the
switch to battery. Make sure that the transilluminator
is charged, otherwise connect the transilluminator to
a power source using the USB charger cable. Select
the required brightness by pressing the switch
button. Record your image.
