Description

he PerkinElmer Cyclone Plus Autoradiography is an advanced device for imaging and analyzing radioactive substances in scientific and medical applications. It is used for capturing autoradiograms, which are created when radioactive tracers in a sample are detected. The Cyclone Plus combines speed and sensitivity, providing detailed and accurate visualization of radioactive labels in biomedical and pharmacological research.

Key features of the Cyclone Plus include:

  1. Digital imaging: The device uses a digital camera and a scintillation detector to quickly and accurately capture radioactive signals.

  2. High resolution: The Cyclone Plus offers high spatial resolution, which is important for detecting small amounts of radioactive material in samples.

  3. Versatility: The device can be used for a wide range of applications, such as radiochemical analysis, genetics research, and drug development, where radioactive isotopes are used to study molecular interactions and biological processes.

  4. Fast throughput: The Cyclone Plus provides fast imaging and analysis, making it ideal for laboratories working with large numbers of samples or for studies that require quick results.
