The FastGene® FAS-X is an impressive stand-alone system. Its elegant design and small footprint allow it to fit into any laboratory environment. No external computer is required. Enhanced interaction via the 13.3 inch full HD touchscreen provides a simple user experience, while large storage capacity (128 GB) and network compatibility improve data management and workflow efficiency.
Equipped with a 20 MPixel color camera, FastGene® FAS-X provides high-resolution gel images and simplifies the process of selecting the area of interest in your gel.
The camera's scientific grade 1" CMOS sensor offers remarkable sensitivity, detecting nucleic acids at concentrations as low as 2 ng. This ensures that every detail is accurately captured for publication-quality images.
The giant 26 cm x 21 cm transilluminator ensures perfect illumination of your gel.
The prefocused optical unit allows you to capture images without refocusing, saving time and speeding up image acquisition.
The filter wheel in the FAS-X offers the advantage of effortlessly switching between Blue/Green LED light and the epi-white LED light mode.
Together with the included white light plate, the epi-white LED light mode can be used to visualize colorimetric PAGE protein gels with impressive quality.
In addition, high-resolution images of (colorimetric) Western blot membranes or bacterial colony plates can be obtained in epi-white LED light mode.
