Invitrogen E-Gel Power Snap Benchtop Electrophoresis and Imaging System with Blue Light Transilluminator

The Invitrogen E-Gel Power Snap Electrophoresis System is a compact benchtop platform designed for rapid DNA electrophoresis and gel imaging, widely used in molecular diagnostics and biotechnology laboratories. This system leverages *E-Gel precast agarose gels*, reducing hazardous chemical handling and streamlining workflows critical in molecular cloning and synthetic biology applications.

• Features a 465 nm blue LED transilluminator with an amber filter for safer, high-contrast DNA visualization compared to traditional UV/ethidium bromide methods.
• Incorporates a 7.7 x 4.4 cm touchscreen LCD on the electrophoresis base and an 11.5 x 8.6 cm touchscreen on the Power Snap Camera module for intuitive navigation and real-time monitoring.
• The integrated color CMOS camera captures high-resolution gel images (1600 x 1944 pixels, 3 MP) with 68 dB dynamic range, outputting TIF and JPG file formats directly to internal 32 GB storage or USB devices.
• Designed for applications requiring fast, reliable electrophoresis results, achieving runs in approximately 15 minutes, making it essential for bioprocessing pipelines and gene editing workflows.
• Compact overall dimensions (5 x 11 x 8 inches) and lightweight (4 lbs) ensure convenient benchtop placement in constrained laboratory spaces.
• LED life expectancy of 50,000 hours ensures longevity and consistent performance in research-intensive environments.

This electrophoresis system is critical for researchers in biotechnology, molecular biology, and clinical diagnostics seeking efficient and safe DNA gel analysis. Its fast run times and integrated imaging expedite workflows in biomanufacturing quality control and molecular cloning protocols. The system’s compatibility with Invitrogen E-Gel precast gels makes it a staple for laboratories focused on fluorescence analysis and live-cell imaging sample preparation.
