FirstLight® UV Illuminator
Maximize your quantitative imaging with the new FirstLight UV Illuminator! Unique design provides extremely uniform UV illumination, which is critical for accurate quantitative analysis.

UVP has received the prestigious "Photonics Circle of Excellence" Award from Laurin Publishing for the FirstLight UV Illuminator! The award recognizes this instrument as a technically innovative product.

Applications:
The FirstLight UV Illuminator represents a unique highly uniform excitation source for quantitative fluorescent imaging in a wide range of genomic and proteomic applications:

  • Electrophoretic separation and quantiation of 1D and 2D protein separations
  • Solid phase immunoassay
  • DNA quantitation
  • RNA quantitation

Application Note describes use of the FirstLight UV Illumination instrument for use in quantitative DNA and protein analysis.
