Microbiology system

07 February, 2008 | Supplied by: ALPE Pty Ltd

The Biomic V3 Microbiology System now performs semi-automated reading for all varieties of Etest (AB Biodisk) strips. An enlarged plate image with the Etest strip(s) and its drug-specific MIC scale is displayed on-screen. The user selects the appropriate MIC value, triggering an S-I-R interpretation. Etest results can be printed or transferred to an LIS. High resolution colour Etest images can also be saved for future review.


Real-time transilluminator

07 February, 2008 | Supplied by: Life Technologies

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.
