New Analysis Software from Aplegen

The new version of UltraQuant from Aplegen is a further step forward for this very user-friendly gel analysis software.

Version 8.31.15 has a number of new and improved functions making it one of the easiest packages to use of its type on the market.

UltraQuant is included with all Omega Lum systems where it works seamlessly alongside the SmartCapture Technology imaging platform. Once an image is captured then UltraQuant can quickly and easily provide a full analysis of the gel or blot using a minimum of steps.

Naturally, UltraQuant has a fully automatic mode for the detection of lanes and bands across the gel or blot. Detection sensitivity can be set to an optimum position to achieve the best result. A very effective and easy to use edit function gives the user complete control over any lane or band that needs to be added or subtracted.

A built in library for markers can be utilised to aid the calculation of molecular weights or base pair values. This custom built library can be user maintained so that new marker can be added when required.

Full reporting is of course standard with users able to configure and export an extensive results table and lane graphs.

Unlike some other analysis programs, UltraQuant has a number of tools for image editing and annotation. These are especially useful for those wishing to prepare their images for publication or for inclusion within posters.

Say Aplegen: “UltraQuant has come a long way from its original version but we are very confident this new upgrade will show how far we have come in producing this type of gel and blot analysis software.
