The Interdepartmental Equipment Facility
Chemiluminescence Documentation System
The CLBIS Chemiluminescence Imaging System from Biosystematica, is based on a cooled CCD camera providing 12-bit images with a dynamic range of more than three orders of magnitude. The system is linked to a computer, where image files are saved and processed, using the provided software package. A video printer is built into the system.
Applications. The system is designed for applications demanding high light sensitivity such as documentation of ECL samples. Enhanced chemiluminescence (ECL) is a blotting technique with detection limits in the picogram range. The non-radioactive nature of ECL makes it more attractive than radioisotope techniques with similar sensitivity.
