Small UV Transilluminator

Description

This compact UV transilluminator from BT Lab Systems is designed for visualizing nucleic acids or proteins following gel electrophoresis. The unit provides a uniform ultraviolet illumination source with a peak wavelength of 302 nm and an 8W power rating. Its work surface, or field of view, measures 160 mm by 200 mm, accommodating standard mini-gels. The device is typically used in molecular biology laboratories for applications such as DNA fragment excision, documentation of electrophoresis results, or checking gel purity. Its relatively small footprint makes it suitable for benchtop use in spaces where a larger transilluminator is not required.
