FOTO/Analyst® MiniVisionary Systems

Simple Photodocumentation

Great for Teaching Labs and Outreach Programs

Compact FOTO/Analyst® MiniVisionary Digital Documentation Systems are designed to simply and rapidly document electrophoresis gels in both research and educational laboratories. Thermal prints can be produced for about 1/10 the price of conventional prints with the touch of a button. The integration feature allows the acquisition of very low light fluorescent gels; as little as 0.1 ng of ethidium bromide-stained DNA can be detected.

In seconds, the thermal printer provides you with a continuous-tone black and white print. No waiting for film to develop. No messy processing chemicals. A copy feature on the thermal printer also allows you to quickly produce multiple copies of the same image.

FOTODYNE offers three base configurations for the FOTO/Analyst® MiniVisionary:
