A brief introduction to the 3500/3500dx Gene Sequencer from ABI, USA
The 3500 system with 8-capillary and the 3500xL system with 24-capillary can be upgraded.
Advanced thermal management system design better meets the strict temperature control requirements during DNA fragment analysis.
505 nm single-wavelength solid-state long-life laser source - powered by a standard power supply, no need for cooling.
Significant improvements in signal intensity consistency between different runs of the instrument and between different capillaries.
Powerful, integrated data acquisition and preliminary analysis software provides real-time assessment of data quality.
Tapered drill Maintenance-free energy-saving lamp Variable speed multi-purpose shaker Rapid determination of water content in crude oil
Wireless Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) technology tracks key consumable data and records management information.
Advanced multi-color fluorescent analysis capabilities allow for multiplex detection of DNA fragments using up to 6 different fluorescent dyes.
Unmatched application flexibility - a capillary array and a polymer separation gel applicable for most research applications.
Simple installation, operation, and maintenance - so far the easiest and most convenient DNA sequencer to own and operate.
