UVIblue
Pure blue

The use of special filter material in the Ultravue transilluminator greatly enhances contrast, making fluorescent bands easier to see both by eye and with documentation systems such as UVIsave HD2, UVIdoc HD2 and Alliance 4.7 and 2.7. The special filter eliminates visible light output thereby reducing the need for filtering to isolate the fluorescent band signal.

Enhanced viewing with ethidium and sybr® stains

Enhanced viewing with ethidium and sybr® stains

Gels stained both with ethidium bromide and with sybr® green are viewed by eye more easily on the Ultravue transilluminator. Since background light is eliminated, no filtering is required, and no signal is lost. The dark, uniform filter surface provides a high contrast background enabling viewing of even the faintest bands.

Enhanced documentation

The absence of visible background light and minimal IR output from the Ultravue transilluminator enable broad transmission camera filters to be used. This ensures that maximum transmission of the fluorescent signal is always achieved. For sybr® green documentation, Ultravue is preferable to visible (blue light) illumination in which a large part of the signal is always lost while filtering out the blue background light.
