D77 Darkroom offers 12 illumination options including dual white light and UV Epi Standard D55 darkroom

The FireReader is a 1.4 megapixels gel-documentation system ideal for documentation, publication and quantification. The very high resolution provides more quantification data as the image contains more details. The FireWire is a 16-bit system, to be compared with 12-bit systems of our competitors. The extended dynamic range of the FireReader provides more quantification. The dynamic range is the ratio between the maximum and the minimum measurable light intensities. Light measurements are translated into digital values with precision measured by the bit depth.


Documentation and Quantification

This system is ideal for both documentation and quantification because it combines scientific grade CCD camera technology with software that is easy to use yet sophisticated enough to allow precise optimisation when capturing the image. Saturation is easily controlled to ensure that all bands are quantifiable. The image can be manipulated in a number of ways including contrast, brightness, inversion, mirroring, color scales and annotation.
