White microplate is 20% brighter
Packard BioScience has announced the availability of a new white microplate - OptiPlate384 - claiming a 20% increase in light output and better signal-to-noise ratios
The Cyclone Gene Array system produces images in one tenth of the time of comparably priced traditional autoradiography film methods and outperforms all other competitive imaging systems in terms of better sensitivity, higher resolution and more capable software.
Cyclone images can now be opened directly into QuantArray and measured using a wide range of powerful, yet easy-to-use features.
For researchers comparing the difference between a control and treated filter, the software makes it easy to locate the spots and compare the differences between the data of even highly complex images.
Other features include normalisation of images for different exposures, a range of quantitation methods and analysis of results using the Packard BioChip Technologies Gene Database.
