Abstract:
Images of two-dimensional chromatograms or other sample arrays are formed on a scanning instrument that utilizes a line of illumination light that sweeps the length of the array either by moving across the array or by the array moving relative to the light, in either case scanning the entire two-dimensional array with a unidirectional pass of the moving component. The use of a CCD equipped with time delay integration allows the instrument to form an enhanced image.
Abstract:
An adaptor is designed as an accessory to an ultraviolet transilluminator for the excitation of fluorescent molecules or labels in a planar array of biochemical samples such as a two-dimensional electrophoresis gel to enable the emissions resulting from the excitation to be detected and quantified. The adaptor is constructed to overlay the transilluminator and contains both a fluorescent dye that upon excitation by ultraviolet light emits light in the visible spectrum, and a conditioning substance that selects a portion of the wavelength band of the visible light produced by the fluorescent dye. The adaptor converts the ultraviolet light from the transilluminator to visible light while limiting the emissions reaching the detector to those that emanate from the sample. By the use of this adaptor, the transilluminator is adapted for use with samples labeled with dyes that are excitable by visible light and avoids exposure of the samples and the user to ultraviolet light.
