World Premier of Revolutionary Applications Driven Image Analysis Range at Arablab 2011
25 Feb 2011Syngene's G:BOX range, designed to make imaging all types of gel or blot quick and easy, will be on display for the first time. Syngene’s imaging experts will also be on hand to demonstrate how the new G:BOX image analysis range uses applications to guide scientists effortlessly through filter and lighting set-up.
The G:BOX on show will allow researchers to see how they can accurately image any combination of commercial fluorescent and visible dyes with the G:BOX’s built-in UV and white lighting or Syngene’s optional red, blue, green and infrared LED lighting modules, which can be clipped into the innovative G:BOX lighting gantry.
Syngene’s experts will also explain how the power behind the new G:BOX, the unique GeneSys software uses a database, (which is constantly being updated) of imaging conditions for hundreds of commercially available DNA, RNA and protein dyes. This intelligent software suggests and can automatically instruct the G:BOX to set up the correct filters and lighting conditions for any commercial imaging stain, ensuring visitors to the stand will be amazed at how quickly the G:BOX can generate high quality images of even complex multiplex gels and blots.
Laura Sullivan, Syngene’s Divisional Manager stated: “We are excited to be unveiling the five models in our new G:BOX range on Stand 146 at ArabLab this year. The new G:BOX systems and GeneSys software are the result of two years’ research, and unlike any other imaging equipment they allow users that know what they have stained their gel or blot with to be rapidly guided to their best filters and lighting set-up. We are looking forward to meeting scientists at ArabLab and to letting them see for themselves the time-saving benefits our market leading G:BOX technology can bring to their research.”

GeneSys
SyngeneThe biggest difference between a Syngene system and any other is in the way the system is controlled. At the heart of all Syngene systems is GeneSys which is an application driven control software. You can use GeneSys in either Automatic or Manual mode. It is assumed that the user will know exactly what their application is and how they have prepared their gel or blot. In Auto Mode they simply enter this information into GeneSys (or recall it from a saved configuration) and the system takes over the rest. Behind GeneSys is an extensive database which contains data relating to a very wide range of applications, eg, fluorescence, chemiluminescene and chemifluorescence.Once the imaging system has been told what sample to expect then GeneSys decides what hardware configuration is best and sets the system ready for image capture. Things like camera control, exposure time, sensitivity setting, lighting requirements, lens control, filter selection – all of this is taken care of by GeneSys. The user just has to click the ‘capture’ button and wait for the perfect image to appear. GeneSys ensures scientists can quickly capture excellent images of even complex multiplex gels.The innovative GeneSys software features large touch-screen buttons which guide users effortlessly through set-up and image capture. Each screen prompts researchers to select, for example, the type of gel or blot they are using and what it is stained with.
