Description

The Multifunctional Imager YG1709 and YG1710 represent the next generation of gel documentation systems, combining visible light (RGB), far-red/near-infrared fluorescence (FR/NIR), and chemiluminescence detection in one powerful device. Featuring super-sensitive cooled digital cameras with resolutions up to 20MP (YG1710), these imagers deliver crystal-clear, publication-ready images with 16-bit depth and 65,536 gray scales. The innovative electronic lifting platform automatically adjusts to optimal height for any sample size, while the motorized lens eliminates manual focusing errors. With UV (302nm) and white LED transmission plates, plus unlimited-user software that requires no dongles and receives free updates, these systems are ideal for high-throughput labs needing reliable, versatile imaging. They offer exceptional value for their sensitivity (detecting ≤5pg DNA) and 20,000-program storage capacity.

Key Questions Answered

• What’s the difference between YG1709 and YG1710? The YG1710 offers 4x higher resolution (20MP vs 5MP) and doubled sensitivity for low-abundance samples.
• Can it image large gels or membranes? Yes – the 21x26cm UV area and 19x26cm LED area accommodate most standard and mini gels.
• Is the removable PC worth adding? Absolutely – it future-proofs your system by allowing easy hardware upgrades and reduces downtime if repairs are needed.

Why Labs Choose These Imagers

Advantages:

• All-in-one detection – Replace multiple devices with a single platform for RGB, fluorescence, and chemiluminescence
• Zero licensing fees – Unlimited users and free software updates cut long-term costs
• Space-saving design – 30% more compact than comparable system.

Considerations:

• The YG1710’s premium resolution commands a 15-20% higher price than the YG1709
•  First-time users may require <1 hour of training to master advanced software features

Real-World Applications & Pro Tips

From CRISPR validation to western blot quantification, these imagers excel in:

• Core facilities processing 50+ gels daily.
• Biotech QA/QC labs requiring 21 CFR Part 11 compliance.
• Teaching labs needing student-proof operation.

For peak performance:

1. Use the auto-exposure presets for consistent results.
2. Clean the LED plate weekly with 70% ethanol.
3. Store frequently used protocols in the system’s 20,000-program memory.

Don’t settle for blurry gels or outdated software – the YG1709/YG1710 delivers lab-grade precision with smartphone simplicity.
