LI-COR Biosciences Odyssey CLx

The Odyssey CLx is an advanced infrared imaging system designed for precise and quantitative analysis of proteins, nucleic acids, and other biomolecules. This instrument employs near-infrared fluorescence detection to deliver high-sensitivity imaging, making it indispensable for researchers in biotechnology, molecular biology, and proteomics.

Key features include:

• Dual-channel detection: Simultaneously captures two distinct fluorescent signals, facilitating multiplex analysis and reducing experimental variability.
• High sensitivity and dynamic range: Detects low-abundance targets with exceptional accuracy, ensuring reliable quantification across a broad range of sample concentrations.
• Non-destructive imaging: Preserves samples for subsequent analyses, enhancing experimental efficiency.
• Quantitative analysis software: Provides robust tools for data analysis, enabling precise quantification and interpretation of results.

The Odyssey CLx is widely applied in various scientific domains, including:

• Western blotting: Offers superior sensitivity and quantification compared to traditional chemiluminescent methods.
• In-cell Western assays: Facilitates high-throughput analysis of protein expression directly in cultured cells.
• Protein microarrays: Enables simultaneous analysis of multiple proteins, accelerating biomarker discovery.
• Nucleic acid detection: Supports applications such as siRNA knockdown validation and microRNA analysis.

This system is commonly utilised in university laboratories, biomedical research centres, and biopharmaceutical companies, reflecting its versatility and reliability in diverse research settings. Since its release in 2012, the Odyssey CLx has remained a cornerstone in life science research, continually supporting advancements in biotechnology and related fields.
