Real-time transilluminator

With the E-Gel Safe Imager Real-Time Transilluminator, users can watch migration of DNA bands in real time when carrying out electrophoresis using the E-Gel iBase and E-Gel Pre-Cast Agarose gel containing SYBR Safe DNA Gel Stain. The transilluminator is designed to fit beneath the E-Gel iBase Power System and is intended for use with E-Gels containing SYBR Safe. Blue light emitted by the instrument is suitable for viewing DNA that is stained with SYBR Safe.

Unlike UV, blue light causes minimal damage to DNA, offering improved safety for the user and enhanced cloning efficiency of any DNA retrieved from the gels.

The transilluminator can be purchased as a standalone item in combination with the E-Gel iBase Power System (G6465), or as part of a starter kit that also includes an E-Gel iBase Power System, E-Gel CloneWell gels and an E-Gel 96 High Range DNA Marker (G6500ST).
