The CapitalBio LuxScan™ 10K dna microarray scanner is a compact high performance system for microarray imaging and the analysis of DNA, protein, and cell arrays. Its advanced systems for optics, signal processing, and motion control provide superior scan accuracy and high detection sensitivity over a wide linear dynamic range. With the optimized signal acquisition and processing elements, it is ideal for profiling high-density spotted microarrays.
LuxScan™ 10K-A has two excitation lasers (532nm and 635nm) and scans sequentially, avoiding potential signal crosstalk for dual labeled arrays.
LuxScan™ 10K-B comes with either a 532nm or 635nm excitation laser. It has a National Registration Certificate for Medical Devices and is suitable for diagnostic uses.
