Imaging of chemiluminescent and fluorescent gels and blots
I purchased this system after comparing it to similar products from ThermoFisher and Bio-Techne I use the ChemStudio mainly for imaging of DNA gels and Western blots, but I've recently started using it to photograph bacteriophage plaque assay plates. The system is compact, and the controlling software is both powerful and intuitive. Analytik Jena's technical support is excellent. When an update to Windows 11 disabled the camera, I called and got a replacement driver that solved the problem in less than half an hour. My favorite features: Replaceable non-proprietary emission filters - I can cheaply and easily add new colors by simply swapping filters on the multi-position wheel. Tablet-based integrated controlling computer - in addition to running the software, the Windows-based tablet lets me organize images, email them, or store them on our cloud-based drive. Image stacking - This was life-altering. The camera software allows you to specify multiple exposures. For example 25 images of 30 seconds each. After each image, the software stacks the next on top of it, so the first image would be 30 seconds, the next 60, the next 90, and so on. Because of this, I don't have to spend a lot of time optimizing exposures; I can just start a stack, walk away, and come back later to select the best image of the batch. I don't have to commit either, because I can save the whole stack file and select a different exposure later. Overall, I'm very pleased with this system, and I'd recommend it to anyone looking to upgrade their Western blotting workflow.

Great value and product for a small lab
protein expression, DNA electrophoresis
The ability of the UVP imaging system to do multiple things (chemiluminescence, UV, etc.) with one piece of equipment is great. The program also has built-in quantification if needed.

This is a very versatile instrument for any fluorescent application.
Gel imaging, fluorescent protein expression in colonies, animal imaging
UVP ChemStudio is great for versatility. We purchased the manual illuminator so that we can change multiple filters whenever we need. The instrument is used for imaging DNA gels, protein gels, fluorescent proteins expressed in E. coli, evolving proteins, fluorescent protein sensor evolution in cell lysates, macro imaging of entire corneas, and mice imaging. This is a very versatile instrument for any fluorescent application.

I would recommend this product
Imaging system
After one year of use the product is durable and easy to clean. It takes a bit of practice to become proficient in using the software to obtain high quality images. Service has been excellent, answers to software questions are immediate. Image analysis is sometimes cumbersome, especially with density measurements. Unit and computer frequently need to be turned off and restarted. Overall good product.
