Dark Reader® transilluminators and hand lamps reveal fluorescent DNA, RNA, proteins and other biological samples using a revolutionary combination of a VISIBLE light source and two colour filters. The apparatus is at least as sensitive as UV for the detection of many popular dyes and can be used to see, directly by eye, less than 100 pg of stained DNA.

No UV light is emitted by the Dark Reader so there is essentially zero risk of eye and skin damage. DNA undergoes a number of reactions when exposed to UV light resulting in poor cloning and sequencing results. Use of the Dark Reader drastically reduces the extent of DNA damage and cloning is increased over 100-fold compared to the damage produced by a UV device. The Dark Reader visible light source is very versatile as it is particularly effective for viewing fluorophors through glass and plastic, and even in transgenic plants and animals.

Photographs of gels can be taken using Polaroid and digital cameras as well as with conventional Geldoc systems.

Drawing on Genevac's extensive experience in the drug discovery field, the miVac Series is designed to provide very high performance coupled with ease of use, occupying the minimum of laboratory space.

The miVac Range of centrifugal concentrators are capable of removing water and organic solvents from a variety of sample formats including tubes, microplates, vials and round bottom flasks. Built-in special runs for working with water and water mixtures improve performance and optimise concentration time.

Choose from the miVac DNA Concentrator for simple organic solvents, e.g. methanol, ethanol, and solvents up to 100°C BP, e.g. water, the miVac Duo Concentrator for low sample numbers or the miVac Quattro Concentrator for larger numbers, the Duo and the Quattro are both available with the optional miVac SpeedTrap and pump(s). Both the SpeedTrap and the pumps (Duo Pump, Quattro Pump or Scroll) are also available separately.
