Showa Optronics GLG3078 SOC Laser Head Unit for DNA Sequencer (2013)

The Showa Optronics GLG3078 SOC Laser Head Unit is a precision laser apparatus designed specifically for integration with DNA sequencers used in genomic sequencing workflows. Manufactured in Japan in December 2013, this preowned laser unit powers on and passes essential functional checks, making it suitable for laboratories involved in molecular diagnostics and bioprocessing research. Although full testing requires additional external components, the unit remains operational with typical cosmetic wear for a used scientific instrument.

Key technical features include:

This laser head unit is widely adopted in molecular biology laboratories where precise laser excitation is essential for fluorescence-based DNA sequencing and analysis. It is particularly relevant for researchers focusing on gene editing, synthetic biology, and biomedical engineering projects that demand robust laser integration in sequencing platforms.

The GLG3078 complies with harmonized standards for laser devices used in scientific and medical applications (Harmonized Code: 90132000), underscoring its suitability for advanced biotechnological applications and molecular diagnostics pipelines. Its integration facilitates critical illumination and detection steps in high-throughput genomic sequencing, making it a key component in modern biopharmaceutical production and research environments.
