Uniform Illumination with
Chromascan Technology

Reliable imaging begins with reliable light. IRIS integrates our advanced Chromascan illumination module, designed to deliver highly homogeneous excitation across the entire sample area. This technology combines strong excitation efficiency with exceptional multiplexing flexibility, while minimizing crosstalk between channels. IRIS supports up to 12 interchangeable excitation and emission module packs to accommodate the various numbers of epifluorescent dyes that may be used in a laboratory.

Intelligent

Effortless
Data Analysis

IRIS introduces DeepEye, an unprecedented technology in the world of molecular imaging. As soon as your Western blot is captured, our new software automatically detects lanes, bands and molecular markers - dramatically reducing the time needed for manual adjustments and allowing you to go straight to analysis. Powered by advanced image recognition and deep learning approaches, DeepEye accelerates data interpretation while preserving the integrity of raw experimental data.

Wider
Lens Aperture

Sensitivity is at the core of our developments. IRIS’ exceptional f/0.75 aperture allows it to capture significantly more light and to detect weak protein expression and low-abundance targets with remarkable clarity. Even subtle signals remain clearly visible for reliable and confident interpretation in demanding imaging applications.
