The Unrivaled Sensitivity for CHEMILUMINESCENCE & FLUORESCENCE IMAGING.
Description
The Fusion FX6 Edge is a fully automated, computer-controlled imaging system. It allows imaging of Western Blot membranes in chemiluminescence, fluorescence (with Spectra Capsule option), DNA, RNA and protein gels (transilluminator option).
Fusion’s High Sensitivity Reading (HSR) is a unique technology delivering ultra-low noise and high sensitivity without altering the raw image data. Thanks to a camera modular design, a dual amplifier architecture and a complete control of the electronic components, the camera noise is reduced to a fraction. During the light exposure, the non-necessary camera components are shut down.
- Camera: The Evo-6 Scientific Grade CCD camera for native 6.3 MP image resolution (extendable to 20 MP) with large field-of-view, cooling down to -30°C for minimum noise and Grade 0 (no dead pixels)
- Optics: Unique motorized f/0.70 XL lens, Field of view: 26x22cm: especially produced for imaging applications with the best specifications on the market, autofocus
- Dark room: Fully automated, software controlled darkroom with a wide choice of transilluminators for gel documentation or Spectra modules for multi-color fluorescence applications
- Integrated laser grid for easier sample positioning
- Color imaging for molecular weight markers
- License free Software: New, easy-to-use FusionCapt Software adapted to workflows - one click to get the perfect image. Integrates marker addition, 3-D dynamic scan as well as a complete quantification package
- Upgradeability: System can be upgraded to multi-color fluorescence applications and/or to gel documentation
SUPERIOR QUANTITATIVE
RESULTS
Ultimate linearity for precise protein quantification over the full dynamic range.
HIGH SENSITIVITY READING (HSR) TECHNOLOGY
Ultra-low noise imaging thanks to a dual camera amplifier architecture.
CUSTOM MADE
LENS
FUSION FX custom made lens for enhanced sensitivity and sharpness.
SUPER
SENSITIVITY
Time to get the image is drastically reduced and precious antibody can be saved.
QUANTITATIVE WESTERN BLOTTING
Sensitivity is a key feature to detect a protein expressed at low levels. Broad linear dynamic range is necessary to compare weak and strong signals in the same image.
The FUSION FX has a limit of detection in the picogram level. The system achieves the best signal to noise ratio for the lowest limits of detection.
The FUSION FX is extremely linear over its wide dynamics and can easily detect large intensity difference between bright and faint bands before reaching saturation. The broad linear dynamic range enables relative quantification of target proteins with confidence.
DESIGN FOR SIMPLICITY
ONE CLICK TO THE IMAGE
The FUSION FX has been designed for maximum ease of use. From its simple installation to its intuitive user interface, this system is plug and-play. The FUSION FX software is the easiest software to take an image. Place your blot on the tray, select your application, click on Start and automatically the system auto-exposes your blot image, your marker image and combines the two together.

IMAGE MASTER™ ASSISTANT
The exclusive Image Master helps you to obtain the optimum image at a glance. It automatically monitors the maximum and the minimum intensity obtained on the image, indicates it’s dynamic, signal to noise ratio, and warns you about pixel saturation. The Image Master informs you when the raw data are affected by a post-processing function such as background subtraction or image addition. The Image Master is simply perfect for quantification and publication as it helps you to keep the control on the image, making sure your image is always appropriate whatever its use.
The Image Master Assistant is a powerful tool to control your sample image quality. A modification of the image display does not modify the Image Master data.
