The system is controlled using a mini external computer which neatly fits at the back of the system (Fig 2), reducing footprint. A side door allows users to add their own customized fluorescent filters. GxP module available for regulatory labs. View Data file | Explore the system in 3D Reveal more with SNOW imaging mode—up to 2× greater sensitivity Detect faint bands with precision using SNOW (signal-to-noise optimization watch), an automated imaging mode that delivers up to 2× higher sensitivity—without sacrificing resolution or image quality. This intelligent imaging mode continuously updates the image in real time, allowing users to monitor progress as it happens. SNOW automatically stops when the optimal signal-to-noise ratio is reached, ensuring the best possible image with minimal hands-on time. Enhanced sensitivity: Detect up to twice as many weak bands without sacrificing resolution. Preserve image integrity: Avoid saturation while capturing both strong and faint signals. Wider dynamic range: Extend linearity by preventing overexposure. Hands-free optimization: Auto-stop feature eliminates the need for manual exposure adjustments. Streamlined workflow: No more trial-and-error—just clear, high-quality results. Image integrity checker To support researchers in maintaining the highest standards of transparency and reproducibility, Cytiva offers the Image Integrity Checker—a free, easy-to-use tool that helps validate Western blot images before publication.
