LI-COR BIOSCIENCES

LI-COR Biosciences is a leading biotechnology innovator of imaging systems, analysis software, infrared reagents, and consumables for targeted therapeutics, protein studies, and small animal imaging. LI-COR provides complete research solutions for quantitative Western blots with the Odyssey® Infrared Imaging Systems, Empiria Studio® Software, and IRDye® infrared reagent dyes. In addition to drug discovery and microbiome research technology, our global team of scientists also offers data integrity tools, laboratory best practices, and professional training in an effort to help scientists improve the human condition and solve the challenges that are facing humanity.

The LI-COR technology is unique in the way it captures and analyses proteins and DNA/RNA molecules as all images are captured using the same optical settings. Users don’t need to rely on “autoexposure” or to alter exposure time or laser intensity to obtain non-saturated images.

All that provides you with several advantages, including:
•    Industry leading, true six-log dynamic range
•    High sensitivity with no detector saturation in biologically relevant samples
•    Single acquisition data capture, in record time
•    Uniform illumination across the entire imaging area
•    Multiplexed imaging with several color options
•    Empiria Studio® Software for consistent, in-depth analysis

The family of imagers scientists around the world from academic (+25.000 publications) or private laboratories have trusted for more than 20 years to deliver exceptional data quality.

•    And more…

Pearl Trilogy
Small Animal Imaging system (in vivo, ex vivo) to characterize and monitor therapeutic delivery and response using a sensitive, two-target detection platform. Ex-vivo intraoperative visualization for rapid and accurate Image-Guided Surgery.
•    Longitudinal studies with the highest accuracy and quantification
•    Bioluminescence Imaging
•    2x Sensitive NIR Fluorescence Imaging
•    Biodistribution and Clearance
•    Bone imaging
•    Target Specificity & Therapeutic Delivery
•    And more…

The preferred imager for scientists and clinicians for high signal-to-noise ratios for sharp detection of tumours, or other targets, deep within the body. The Pearl Trilogy couples NIR lasers with filter technology to achieve a stable source of precise and powerful illumination. This leads to sharp excitation light within narrow wavelengths, causing minimal diffusion across the imaging field (CVs < 3%).

Some experiments, such as longitudinal studies, require moving animals in and out of the imaging area. During Image-Guided Surgery, biopsies need to be imaged with identical settings without saturation and without compromising sensitivity. The FieldBrite™ Xi2 system in Pearl Imagers is designed to provide uniform illumination for every image. Whether your experiment requires repeated imaging of 1 mouse or 20 mice, the camera settings are consistent for each capture—without needing readjustment.

C-DiGit® Blot Scanner
The C-DiGit Blot Scanner delivers modern, industry-standard digital imaging technology at a price friendly to budget-conscious programs. It eliminates expenses like hazardous processor chemicals, film, and recycling fees and it fits in a small drawer.
•    Membrane applications with Chemiluminescence detection (Western Blot, Southern Blot)
•    Results are immediately available for analysis, and a single file contains all the image data from a single blot.
Ideal for labs with limited space, who want to quit dark rooms and expensive equipments. Ideal for student classes, preparing them with relevant skills and empowering them with the hands-on experience and knowledge they need to stand out in competitive job markets and graduate programs.

D-DiGit® DNA Gel Scanner
Complete nucleic acid gel analysis documentation without hassles and hazards. Excellent sensitivity provided by the optical system and fluorescence chemistry lets you detect even minute quantities of sample with confidence.
The D-DiGit Gel Scanner enables safe and convenient detection and extraction of DNA and RNA samples stained with fluorescent safe stains that have an excitation maximum of approximately 490 nm and emission greater than 520 nm. See a list of compatible safe stains.
