Testimonials
We have been so impressed with our Syngene image analyser and the excellent technical support team’s can do attitude that we are looking to purchase another Syngene G:BOX specifically for proteomics.
To get away from using film, we reviewed three image analysers and, chose the G:Box Chemi XRQ because the system can easily image large gels and blots and the GeneSys software makes it simple to set up. Also, the system’s binning feature gives us incredible sensitivity, so for price and performance, the G:Box Chemi XRQ is the clear winner.
We upgraded to a G:Box by Syngene’s excellent support team. They were very knowledgeable and were able to talk us through any technical questions we had. The G:Box is now very heavily used all day, every day, for analysing DNA and protein gels and we print over 500 gel images every month. In short, the G:Box is a gel imaging workhorse that works!
We are looking for microbial DNA stained with SYBR Green in colonic samples taken from children with chronic digestive diseases. The DNA bands on our gels are often low intensity, so we need an imager which can detect these. Syngene’s technical team is very honest and they advised us on the right lighting and filter combination to allow us to easily visualise our DNA. We’re very pleased we purchased an InGenius.
“We have been using the digital system to detect signals from our chemiluminescent Western blots previously, however the old system sometimes struggled to cool the camera down to the required temperatures during hot summer months. This was especially a problem when we needed long exposure times to detect low abundance signals in our samples. Therefore, we decided to replace it with the newer and more reliable system. G:BOX Chemi XX6 imaging system from Syngene was the most sensitive device from all devices that we had a chance to test, including our own old system. Therefore, we decided to purchase the G:BOX Chemi XX6 with the upgrade for fluorescent applications in 2023, and since then we successfully use it to acquire chemiluminescent Western blots, protein gels with proteins in-house labelled with various fluorescent dyes, and occasionally, we also analyse and count the bacterial colonies expressing fluorescent proteins. We are happy we decided for this versatile and easy to use system.”
