Microtek Bio-6000

Bio-6000

 Description

 Microtek’s Bio-6000, performing advanced application in biological laboratory, is perfectly designed for large image capture of dry or wet sample of electrophoresis gel, SDS-PAGE, western blotting, etc. It provides energy-saving LED light source without any warm-up time before carrying out the scan, which boots your productivity and reduces energy costs amazingly.

Bio-6000 provides high image quality with the technical characteristics: 3200-dpi optical resolution, 48-bit color & 0.05D ~ 3.77D, which delivers astonishing, sharpness, detailed, and near-original images. Not only with high image quality but also with large size scanning area. With the large leak-free scan bed, the Bio-6000 is the best choice to digitize big size gel images and offer a total solution including powerful software features for biological professionals and researchers.

Furthermore, the designed leak-free scan bed and shield prevent the machine from liquid penetration. Scientists can capture images directly from gel surface handily no matter the samples are dry or wet. It saves a lot of time, 1-2 days at least, to continue the lab projects without waiting sample dry.

Leak-free large scan bed & shield avoid liquid penetration
Bio-6000 is equipped with a specially designed leak-free scan bed and shield that prevent the machine from liquid penetration.

 

Deliver accurate images no matter the scanned target is dry or wet gel samples
Scientists can capture images directly from gel surface handily no matter the samples are dry or wet. It saves a lot of time, 1-2 days at least, to continue the lab projects without waiting sample being dried. 

 

 

6 seconds per gel scanning (10x10cm)

 

 

0.05 Dmin / 3.77 Dmax optical density 3200 dpi optical resolution ( 7.9 um spot size, 63 lp/mm )
Bio-6000 provides high image quality with the technical characteristics: 3200 dpi resolution, 48-bit color, 0.05Dmin-3.77Dmax. The images are amazingly crystal-clear for the bright area. There is no need to worry about contrast or light reflection problems, the scanner presents the consistent image with the original sample.

 

 

 

Smart-Touch button quick captures images

 

 

Make batch scanning easily
With specially designed film holders, the Bio-6000T accommodates film holders. The film holders lock into place, assuring perfect alignment and precise scans, as well as offering convenient batch scanning.

 

Powerful software features
Along with MiBio, it implements many biological image analysis features with a user-friendly surface (Windows only). The utility provides added valuable turnkey solution. Microtek’s Bio-6000T is also compatible with all advanced image analysis software packages for 1D and 2D gel electrophoresis.

 

 

Fields of application and application examples
Electrophoresis gels stained with Coomassie blue staining, or autoradiography. i.e. silver-stained SDS PAGE, etc.
