Product description

White light transilluminator with 21x26 cm viewing area for gels, autoradiographs, and X-ray film imaging.

The VWR TW-26 White Light Transilluminator offers a durable and chemically resistant viewing surface sized at 21 x 26 cm (8.25 x 10.25”), ideal for precise observation of gel electrophoresis stained gels, film negatives and positives, autoradiographs, X-ray films, and microtiter plates. The permanently double-sealed glass top ensures scratch and chemical resistance, maintaining optical clarity critical for accurate gel imaging and molecular diagnostics workflows.

Key technical features include:

  • Viewing area: 21 x 26 cm (8.25 x 10.25”)
  • Overall dimensions: 10 x 14 x 4 inches
  • Weight: 8 lbs
  • Power requirements: 115 V, 0.38 A, 60 Hz
  • Epoxy powder-coated housing for enhanced chemical resistance during routine biotechnology and clinical laboratory use

This transilluminator is widely used in molecular biology and synthetic biology laboratories for visualization of nucleic acid and protein gels, supporting workflows in gene editing, molecular cloning, and bioprocessing applications. Its robust design and reliable illumination make it a valuable instrument in biomedical engineering and biotechnology research environments that require consistent bright white light for fluorescence and chemiluminescence-based analyses.

The VWR TW-26 supports critical visualization steps essential to biopharmaceutical production pipelines and molecular diagnostics, making it a trusted solution for researchers needing high-quality, stable illumination for detailed gel and film analysis.

Why Questpair exists

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.

Frequently asked questions

How long does laboratory equipment typically last?

With a service contract, ten to fifteen years is normal for most benchtop instruments. Detectors and pumps are the parts that wear first.

Can I get service for older equipment?

Yes. Every verified supplier states which service partners cover the instrument, and we list that alongside the offer.

Where can I buy parts?

Ask a scientist through the request button. Parts are often available even when the instrument itself is discontinued.

What is the typical lead time for refurbished equipment?

Two to six weeks, depending on refurbishment scope and whether calibration is included.

Does laboratory equipment ship internationally?

We ship to 38 countries. Crating and customs handling are quoted with the instrument.
