The blue LED transilluminator is a high-quality blue light transmission device, widely used for the observation of nucleic acid and protein gel staining. It has a blue LED light source with an amber filter cover; used with nucleic acid-safe dyes with an excitation wavelength of 450~495nm, it achieves gel viewing and cutting without protective light filtering goggles. The observation area is L210×W120mm, the max emission wavelength is 470nm and the LED lifetime is >50,000h.

Why choose the TI470

Bottom light-emittingUnique bottom light-emitting design evenly excites gels, with high brightness and low background interference.

Precise sealing structurePrecise sealing structure effectively reduces the possibility of gel contamination.

Blue LED light sourceHigh-quality blue LED light source, low power consumption, more than 50,000h service life.

No harmful UV raysBlue LED light is not harmful to the human body or to gel samples.

Darkroom and cutting knifeIncludes a fold-able darkroom for gel band photography and a precision gel cutting knife.

Memorized light intensityLight intensity can be adjusted and memorized, so there is no need to set it repeatedly.

Rotating amber coverThe amber cover filter can be rotated at multiple angles to facilitate observation and gel cutting.

Where it fits

The TI470 is used for the observation of nucleic acid and protein gel staining and for gel cutting. It is compatible with most safe fluorescent dyes, including SYBR Safe, SYBR Green I, SYBR Gold, Gelite Green, SYPRO Orange, GelGreen, Coomassie Fluor Orange stains and SYPRO Tangerine. With nucleic acid-safe dyes with an excitation wavelength of 450~495nm, gels can be viewed and cut without protective light filtering goggles, and the amber cover filter can be rotated at multiple angles for observation and gel cutting.

Frequently asked questions

Which dyes can be used?

The TI470 is compatible with most safe fluorescent dyes, including SYBR Safe, SYBR Green I, SYBR Gold, Gelite Green, SYPRO Orange, GelGreen, Coomassie Fluor Orange stains and SYPRO Tangerine (nucleic acid-safe dyes with an excitation wavelength of 450~495nm).

Are protective goggles needed?
