Fusion FX7

FUSION FX - New Edge Generation, The Unrivalled Sensitivity

RELIABLE DATA FOR QUANTIFICATION PRECISE AND ACCURATE 

The FUSION FX7 is ideal for quantification grade imaging. Chemiluminescent Western blot data poses distinct challenges in producing quantifiable, reproducible data. These problems stem from a low-dynamic range of detection and the difficulty in accurately determining the limit of detection. The FUSION FX7 eliminates all these issues thanks to its High Sensitivity Reading (HSR) camera technology which delivers reliable dynamic range, linearity and sensitivity for the lowest limit of detection.

With the HSR, the FUSION FX7 reduces the various sources of noise to the lowest floor level and the signal can stand out from the surrounding background. The FUSION FX7 provides consistent and reproducible data, independently of the chemiluminescence time course. The chemiluminescence intensity/time profile consists of an initial rise period up to a prolonged emission at a pseudo-plateau level and a decline.

The FUSION FX7 Automatic imaging mode compensates the time course of the chemiluminescence reaction by adjusting the exposure time while maintaining the larger possible image dynamic.
