Versatile instrument and very good for analyzing western blots.
Western blot and taking gel image
I have been using this imaging system since last year and happy with it. I have been mainly using it for western blot and taking images of SDS gel. Happy with performance and there are so many things you can do to analyze your western blot etc. I would recommend it.

Great equipment for every lab doing bench work.
Imaging, western blot
We bought the CLx last October for the lab, primarily for western blot imaging and analysis. The signal is very clear and sensitive. We can blot different proteins by taking advantage of the different color channels. We also explore other functions such as using it as a scanner for our crystal violet cologenic assay. The software is great for organizing blots and we can export them any time. The quantification function is simple and straightforward.

Scan area is 25 x 25 cm. This imager has a simple, intuitive interface. Image Studio™ Software is an easy-to-use imaging software that uses an application-driven ribbon interface that is easy for new users to learn.
- Do More with Digital Fluorescence: Get consistent, reproducible digital images, without the hassles and unpredictability of film – so you can analyze your data right away and plan your next experiment.
- See More with Clear Western Blot Images: See both strong and faint bands clearly in the same image, with great sensitivity and no image saturation. Multiplex with two fluorescent colors to see even more data.
- Discover More with Richer, More Complete Data: Capture all the detail and complexity of your data. With 6 logs of linear dynamic range, your results are more reproducible. Near-infrared (NIR) fluorescence delivers consistent signals that aren’t affected by timing.
And, all LICORbio imaging systems and products give you access to our outstanding team of expert support scientists.
The Odyssey CLx Imaging System has been discontinued and replaced with the upgraded Odyssey F Imaging Systems.
Cell Viability Assay with Sapphire700 Stain and the Odyssey CLx and Sa Imaging Systems
This protocol describes a cell viability assay that uses near-infrared fluorescent detection. Sapphire700™ Stain is used to determine cell viability by assessing cell membrane integrity, and the assay is imaged with the Odyssey® CLx Imaging System.
Northern Blot Analysis Using Biotin PCR Labelled Probes
This application note from LI-COR discusses methods for Northern blotting analysis, biotin probe labelling using PCR amplification, Northern blot hybridisation, biotin detection for Northern blots, and a troubleshooting guide.
Tips for Adapting the Cartesian Array <sup>TM</sup> Protocol
This application note from LI-COR gives advice on how to adapt the Cartesian Array™ Human Cytokine Set 1 kit (Biosource International) for use on the Odyssey Infrared Imaging System. By comparing signal intensities, relative cytokine expression levels can be determined and quantitated using either ‘Odyssey’ or an image/array analysis software package capable of importing 16-bit TIFF image files.
