LI-COR ODYSSEY - Model DLx - Western Blotting Technique

EMBRACE DIGITAL FLUORESCENCE
Get consistent, accurate digital images, without the hassle and unpredictability of film. Fluorescent signals are stable and unaffected by timing, so you can compare band intensities with confidence. You can even re-image the same blot on the Odyssey DLx later and see the same results.

ACCESS MORE APPLICATIONS
Western blots, cell-based assays, protein gels, gel shift assays, tissue section imaging, and more are at your fingertips with near-infrared (NIR) fluorescence on the Odyssey DLx.

EXPAND YOUR THROUGHPUT
To image and analyze many samples efficiently, use the Odyssey DLx to scan up to 9 mini-blots, 6 microplates, or 30 slides at the same time. The large scanning bed provides high throughput for many assays.

CAPTURE ALL YOUR DATA
One digital image file contains all your data so you can see both strong and faint signals clearly in a single image, without saturation, “blowout,” or reduced sensitivity. Increase the consistency and reliability of your results by capturing a single image with the Odyssey DLx, rather than multiple exposures under variable conditions.

UNLOCK TWO-COLOR MULTIPLEXING
Use secondary antibodies labeled with spectrally distinct NIR fluorescent dyes to get more data from your blot. View, adjust, and analyze your results as a merged image, or as separate 700 nm and 800 nm channel images in pseudo-color or grayscale.

EXPERIENCE TRUE 6-LOG DYNAMIC RANGE
Never lose your data because of image saturation. Digital fluorescent detection with the Odyssey DLx shows your strong signals as they really are. Film and CCD imagers only show you part of the picture, because data are lost when images become saturated.
