The goal is to the visualize the low light emission from tobacco plants transformed with this same plasmid as a nonantibiotic detection marker along with a gene encoding a novel mucosal vaccine for COVID-19. Plants that produce light will be considered transformed and extracted for isolation of the vaccine protein. For the ultimate accuracy in applications like this, Analytik Jena has created the UVP BioSpectrum Advanced imaging system for experiments with the applications of observation of low light emission. This all-in-one in vivo imager features a multitude of illumination sources including overhead LED white light, and laser bars covering a majority of the visible light spectrum as well as the near infrared region. Violet, blue, green, red/near infrared, and near-infrared 2 laser bars make for the utmost uniformity and high specify bright coverage.
The UVP BioSpectrum Advanced is an all in-one BioImaging system with in vivo imaging capabilities for sample documentation and analysis, including in vivo animal imaging, plant imaging, chemiluminescence, NIR, and fluorescence. This all-in-one system is perfect for any lab within research institutions, medical facilities, academic research institutions, pharmaceutical companies, amongst others.
The UVP BioSpectrum Advanced comes with a choice of deeply-cooled CCD camera sensors capable of imaging fluorescence, chemiluminescence, and bioluminescence. The system features extended NIR, violet (405nm), red, green, and blue laser bars, white epi (overhead) illumination, motorized platform lift and filter wheel, and automated lens. Add a sample warming plate, UV light transilluminator, or blue light transilluminator to fit your specific application needs.
Analytik Jena will be attending this years Society for Neuroscience Conference being held in Chicago Illinois October 5-9th 2024!
