UV / White Light Transilluminator

The combination transilluminators can easily be changed from UV to white light by means of a switch.
Access to the filter surface is secured by an adjustable, transparent UV protection screen.

UV/White Light Transilluminators are equipped with two filters of 20 x 20 cm each. The double filters allow the choice of UV wavelength (either 302 or 365 nm or a combination of 302/365 nm) and white light illumination.

The white light illumination can be used for documentation of all visible coloured samples, such as gels stained with silver or Coomassie blue, as well as for X-ray imaging.

UV/White Light Transilluminators

The special design emits high-intensity excitation UV wavelengths for backlighting transparent fluorescent materials.

UV backlighting provides a highly sensitive method for detecting double-stranded nucleic acids labelled with fluorescent dyes such as ethidium bromide or acridine orange.
Single-stranded nucleic acids can also be detected, but with an excitation wavelength that is sensitive for visualising nucleic acids.

White light is used to illuminate Coommassie Blue, silver staining and protein gels.
The transilluminator features increased UV intensity and uniformity, instant on, no lamp flicker and lower power consumption.

WARNING
Transilluminators are powerful sources of ultraviolet radiation which can cause serious damage to unprotected eyes and skin. Read the ultraviolet Caution Information before operating any transilluminators.

*Note about UV: UVP refers to its midrange UV products as 302nm. Other manufacturers may say 300nm, 310nm or 312nm. The spectral output of these units is the same as UVP's 302nm.
