demands. Integrated vacuum and dispensing pumps ensure accurate and
quiet washing. It features easy wash protocol creation and storage (75
user-defined protocols can be stored in memory). It adapts to strip or
plate wash modes with interchangeable manifolds for 8- and 12-well
strips.; Its protocols are flexible - the user decides the soak
time and number of wash cycles. Compatibility with flat, U- or V-bottom
plates makes for an easy to use machine. Programmable needle positions
for bottom washing, crosswise aspiration and overflow washing mean you
have ultimate flexibility. One-half height and power wash cycles are
also available. Dispense speed control and plate-shaking options make
it easy to adapt existing protocols .
Fluorescence microscopy differs from other microscopy
methods in a variety of ways.; Normal brightfield microscopy in a
high power microscope takes light and passes it through a thin specimen
on a glass microscope slide.; Phase contrast microscopy begins
with normal light, then shifts it out of phase and this phase shift is
translated into a difference in viewing intensity.; Darkfield
microscopy is an illumination technique where the biological specimen
is illuminated from the sides instead of from the bottom.
Fluorescence microscopy differs from all these techniques in that the
visible light in the microscope eyepieces is not the original light
emitted by the light source.; The light you see is actually light
that has fluoresced from the fluorescing microscope specimen.; A
high intensity light source is used.; This light is passed through
an dichroic filter cube containing a fluorescence bandpass excitation
filter.; Only specific wavelengths of light are allowed to pass
and reach the fluorescence specimen.; After the incident filtered
light reaches the specimen, it is no longer used, and any amount
reflecting back into the microscope objective to the dichroic filter is
filtered out by the emission filter.; The specimen fluoresces and
it is this fluorescing light that passes back through the fluorescence
emission filter and goes to the microscope eyepieces to provide a
fluorescence image of the specimen.
For the professional, student, or faculty
researcher, the new 4300 DNA Analysis System from LI-COR will
accelerate your research and improve the quality of your data. High
confidence in more precise data is the edge that researchers using
LI-COR DNA analysis systems have had for more than 10 years. The 4300
System is a third generation instrument based on LI-COR's highly
sensitive infrared fluorescence detection technology. 4300
instrumentation, software, reagents, and applications are all part of
an integrated system designed to achieve the highest accuracy. Infrared
detection is a key advantage since biological contaminants, gels, and
glass plates have little infrared fluorescence. With low background
fluorescence, dye fluorescence signals are clean and strong. Infrared
detection gives 4300 Systems excellent sensitivity. As samples pass in
front of the scanning laser/microscope, two solid-state avalanche
photo diodes detect fluorescence. Optical filtering assures that each
detector measures fluorescence from only one of the infrared dyes. The
4300 instrument contains a server that can operate either in a
stand-alone configuration or connected to your network. An Internet
browser or LI-COR Application Software can be used to start
electrophoresis. The server software completely controls
electrophoresis and data storage during a run. Two 16-bit TIFF images
are stored on the 4300's server during a run. The 4300 System gives you
maximum data access. Any computer can connect to the 4300 System via
Internet browser or LI-COR Application Software (e-Seq, Saga, etc.). In
a network environment, image data can be accessed from your office or
over the Internet. Secure, password-protected server software assures
that only members of your project have access to your data.

inch apple display makes viewing even the biggest pictures a
breeze.; With programs such as Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Adobe
Reader, and Adobe Dream weaver we have something for everyone.;
This makes a great place to do homework, or register for classes.;
Combined with the Mac Server this is a powerful lab for anyone to use.

The Eppendorf Personal Microcentrifuges
MiniSpin and MiniSpin plus are compact and easy to use, and they are
powerful enough so that each workstation can be equipped with a
"personal" centrifuge for a wide range of molecular biology separations
and quick spins. Two models are available to meet your performance
requirements.; The Mini Spin Plus Microcentrifuges you will find
in most our labs will spin at 14500 rpm or 14000 x gravity.; They
have the ability to spin from 15 seconds to 99 minutes with continuous
functions, as well as a short spin button for shorter manual
spins.
The patch clamp technique was introduced to
biology initially by Cole in the late 1930's and was exploited by the
Hodgkin & Huxley team in the late 1940's. The Hodgkin & Huxley
conceptual model of the axon presented in 1952 was based on data
acquired using this technique. Unfortunately, neither group presented a
model of the complete neuron that supported their proposals. The
technique has been applied widely since their time using a variety of
modifications. All of these activities have been exploratory in nature.
They have seldom included a theoretical model that they were attempting
to confirm. The normal approach has been to attempt to extract a model,
after the fact, from the data. Dr. William Cliff
can tell you more if you are interested in what we do with this system.
The Fluor-S MAX MultiImager is
a quantitative imaging system for capturing digital data from single
and multi-color fluorescence, chemiluminescence, chemifluorescence and
coloimetric samples. Using super-cooled CCD technology in combination
with a unique ultraviolet illumination mechanism and high efficiency,
the Fluor- S MAX offers high sensitivity, uniformity, flexibility and

cm) and small (20 x 25 cm) storage phosphor screens.
The iCycler thermal cycler offers excellent thermal
performance, fast ramping, intuitive programming, a choice of reaction
modules with different assay formats, and optional upgrades for
real-time PCR (which are available in our labs). Many user-friendly
features, including help screens and reference lists, guide you through
experiments. The high-resolution graphical interface simplifies file
and protocol management and allows printing of a variety of reports.
Standard gel electrophoresis techniques for
separation of DNA molecules provided huge advantages for molecular
biology research. However, many limitations existed with the standard
protocol in that it was unable to separate very large molecules of DNA
effectively. DNA molecules larger than 15-20kb migrating through a gel
will essentially move together in a size-independent manner. At
Columbia University in 1984, Schwartz and Cantor developed a variation
on the standard protocol by introducing an alternating voltage gradient
to better the resolution of larger molecules. This technique became
known as Pulsed Field Gel Electrophoresis (PFGE). The development of
PFGE expanded the range of resolution for DNA fragments by as much as 2
orders of magnitude.
The
current model LS 6500 (and LS6000 for that

a digital signal processor, maximize technological lifetime and make
the LS 6500 fast and efficient. Additional functionality for the 6500 include
improved counting efficiency of dry scintillant (eg ReadyCaps); a
reversible belt carrier system that allows for more convenient
recounting of samples; counting single racks without command card
(under interrupt in the Multi Task menu), single photon counting, and
dual label studies.

adjustable for sterilization of solids and liquids and a drying cycle
removes residual moisture after sterilization. Heat-insulated,
double-locking door protects against accidental burns; door cannot be
opened while chamber is under pressure and over-temperature cutoff and
over-pressure valve ensures safe operation. Analog controls and gauges

parts and are backed by a two-year warranty.
A spectrophotometer is a photometer
(a device for measuring light intensity) that can measure intensity as
a function of the color, or more specifically, the wavelength of light.
Perhaps the most common application of spectrophotometers is the
measurement of light absorption, but they can be designed to measure
diffuse or specular reflectance.
