Hoefer® Chemi FX6 and FX9 ChemiFluo Imaging Systems

The Chemi FX6/FX9 is the perfect system for gel documentation, imaging, and analysis in your lab.

The in-house designed, FREE software with unlimited licenses ensures you can detect chemiluminescence effectively and efficiently. This system is ideal for imaging multiple sample types and sizes, from fluorescence 1D and 2D gels to chemiluminescent blots. Utilizing the GelSys automatic control software, with free updates, ensures your system remains on the cutting edge of technology, driven from a database containing hundreds of capture protocols. With a range of lighting and manual control options, image your way with the Chemi FX6/FX9.

Accurate
 
Combining cooled, high-resolution camera and unique optical imaging means your Chemi FX generates true-to-life images, not just digitally enhanced ones. With a Chemi FX, you’ll resolve close chemi and fluorescent bands or spots even on complex gels and know they’re real.

Sensitive
 
Chemi FX systems are multi-application powerhouses for accurately imaging fluorescence, multiplex westerns, agarose DNA gels, visible protein gels, stain-free gels, and chemi blots. Fully integrated with computer controlled, intuitive GelSys software, you can utilize the impressive 4.8 OD dynamic range of a Chemi FX to detect femtogram quantities of DNA and proteins time after time.

Fast
 
Featuring the option to use a range of UV, blue, green, red, far red, and infra-red LEDs, which are up to 200 times brighter than standard LEDs, the Chemi FX range gives you fast exposure and brilliant multiplex fluorescence images.

Future-Proof
 
With our guarantee of free software upgrades, not just today but throughout your system’s life, your Chemi FX will always have the latest imaging capabilities.
