High-resolution CCD gel documentation systems for protein and nucleic acid imaging, supporting fluorescence and colorimetry.
The Bio-Rad Gel Doc XR and Gel Doc XR+ imaging systems are advanced CCD-based gel documentation platforms designed for precise visualization and quantitative analysis of protein and nucleic acid gels, blots, and macroarrays. These systems are widely adopted in molecular biology, biotechnology, and clinical diagnostics, essential for workflows involving PCR product analysis, electrophoresis, genetic fingerprinting, RFLP, and protein characterization.
Key technical specifications include:
The Gel Doc XR series supports crucial biotechnology applications such as molecular cloning workflows, gene editing validation, protein purification assays, and biopharmaceutical production monitoring. The integration of software tools for image capture, analysis, and reporting makes it a robust solution for researchers in synthetic biology, neurobiology, and cell biology requiring reliable gel documentation and fluorescence analysis.
Both XR and XR+ models include a darkroom hood, filter slider with standard and optional emission filters, and comprehensive software environments (Quantity One for XR, Image Lab for XR+) engineered for workflow automation and data reproducibility critical in molecular diagnostics and biomanufacturing research pipelines. The XR+ enhances user efficiency with its software-controlled motorized lens adjustments and compatibility with fluorescence protection screens, thereby optimizing DNA visualization protocols for sensitive sample preservation.
In summary, the Bio-Rad Gel Doc XR and XR+ systems provide precise, reproducible imaging solutions that are widely used by molecular biology researchers and biotechnologists conducting live-cell imaging analysis, fluorescence gel documentation, and quantitative protein assays in both academic and industrial laboratory settings.
Lab equipment markets are fragmented. Buyers spend weeks calling distributors, comparing quotes, and verifying supplier reliability. Sellers struggle to reach global research labs.
We built Questpair to fix this. Every supplier on the platform is verified before listing. Every quote you receive comes from a real, vetted seller. AI prepares your case in minutes, then a real specialist takes over.
We're an independent team based in The Netherlands, working with research labs and procurement teams across Europe and worldwide.
With a service contract, ten to fifteen years is normal for most benchtop instruments. Detectors and pumps are the parts that wear first.
Often, yes. Verified suppliers frequently work with service partners converting the instrument. If applicable, we can list servicing options alongside the offer.
Ask a scientist through the request button. Parts are often available even when the instrument itself is discontinued.
Two to six weeks, depending on refurbishment scope and whether calibration is included.
We ship to 38 countries. Crating and customs handling are quoted with the instrument.
Tell us what you need and a scientist finds it for you, usually within the hour.
