FluorChem Q System
Quantitative Western Blot and Fluorescent Imaging

The multiplex fluorescent detection and chemiluminescent imaging capabilities of the FluorChem Q provide a complete solution for quantitative Western blot imaging and analysis. The open platform is compatible with a wide variety of dyes and kits, providing the flexibility needed for multiple applications.

  • Uniquely designed for quantitiative imaging of multiplex fluorescent westerns, with dyes such as Cy3 Cy5 and Cy2
  • Fast lens technology also provides the ability to rapidly detect and quantitate chemiluminescent westerns without the need for film and a scanner
  • Protocol driven analysis reducing imaging time by remembering the settings for imaging your assay
  • Advanced AlphaView Q software provides the tools for analyzing your data, and provides the ability to save your analysis protocols for your assay
  • Applications: Chemiluminescent Westerns, Multiplex Fluorescent Westerns, 96-Well Plates, 2-D Gels, Colony Counting, Protein Gels, DNA

Multiplex Western Analysis
Examine Multiple Proteins Simultaneously

The FluorChem Q allows quantitative detection of multiple proteins in a single assay, eliminating the need to strip and re-probe blots. Intensity values are easily normalized to a loading control to correct for inaccuracies.
 

Detect Co-Migrating Proteins

Overlapping proteins such as phosphorylated and unphosphorylated isoforms or other proteins with similar migration can be probed in the same blot. Our unique Channel Viewer feature allows visualization of individual bands in overlapping areas.
 

 

Ultra-Sensitive Protein Detection
The FluorChem Q System delivers the wide dynamic range and sensitivity essential to accurately detect subtle changes in protein levels.

 

Features And Benefits

  • Six-position filter wheel provides UV and fluorescent imaging versatility
  • Three excitation channels with specific wavelengths for multiplex fluorescent Western blot imaging
  • Powerful fixed lens for rapid imaging speeds
  • AlphaView® Q software saves imaging protocols and provides quantitative analysis
