LuxScan™ 10K Microarray Scanner

Compact high performance scanner system for microarray imaging and data analysis

CapitalBio LuxScanTM 10K Microarray Scanner is a compact high performance scanner system for microarray imaging and data analysis of DNA, protein, cell and tissue arrays. It integrates many advanced designs in optical, signal processing and motion control systems and has a superior performance when compared with other competitive scanners on the market.
LuxScanTM 10K-A has two excitation lasers (532 nm and 635 nm) that provide high detection sensitivity, accuracy, dynamic range and linearity. With its advanced and optimized signal acquisition and processing elements, it is an ideal tool for profiling microarray-based gene expression assay.
LuxScanTM 10K-B, with a choice of either the 532 nm or 635 nm laser excitation scource, provides specific array applications at a lower cost.
