Description
Blue light transilluminators are often used as an alternative to UV transilluminators when users wish to use safe dyes' instead of Ethidium Bromide. A blue light transilluminator is a safe' light source, in that the user is not exposed to harmful UV radiation and samples are free from photonicking. The UltraBright-LED transilluminator can be used instead of the UV transilluminator in all Syngene G:BOX systems.
Syngene offers 2 models of blue LED transilluminator UltraSlim-LED which has a maximum gel size of 10 x 12cm for use in the In:Genius3 and U:Genius3 systems or the UltraBright-LED which can be used with gels up to 20 x 16cm for use in the G:BOX series. Both models use side mounted 470nm LED arrays for illumination.
Features
UltraSlim-LED
Overview
This exciting product uses a high intensity LED array which can illuminate a range of dyes including GelRed, GelGreen, SYBRSafe, EtBr and the new UltraPower DNA safe dye. UltraSlim-LED provides a uniform and bright excitation across gels up to 10 x 12cm.
The unit is compact and slimline and has an array of LEDs which illuminate samples from the side, providing low signal to noise ratio (S/N). A built-in filter/lid provides the optimum viewing conditions and is ideal for band cutting.
All UltraSlim-LED units are powered using a universal voltage, 24V power supply. The overall dimensions are 21.0W x 21.0D x 3.0H cm. UltraSlim-LED can be used in any Syngene darkroom or as a stand-alone unit.

The UltraBright-LED
Overview
The UltraBright-LED is a new generation of blue light transilluminator. The UltraBright-LED has two side-mounted high intensity LED arrays. This produces uniform and bright excitation at 470nm making it suitable for a wide range of dyes.
The UltraBright-LED is compatible with the following dyes: GelGreen, GelRed, SYBR Green, SYBR Gold, SYBR Safe, UltraSafe Blue and even ethidium bromide stained DNA gels. Gels up to 20 x 16cm can be viewed. The use of special filter material built into the lid of the UltraBright transilluminator greatly enhances the contrast of bands providing the optimum viewing conditions that are ideal for image capture and band cutting.
UltraBright-LED is powered using a universal voltage, 24V power supply. The overall dimensions are 33.0W x 28.0Dx 9.0H cm. The UltraBright-LED can be used in a Syngene G:BOX or as a stand-alone unit.
