Bio-5050 Application Scenario
High accuracy & Stability performance
With 48 bit color depth, 4800 dpi resolution, 0.0D ~ 3.4D absorbance range capacity, plus high-quality and stable performance with a CV value of 0.5%, it can accurately and stably capture electrophoretic gel, rapid test strip and film images. It is the best choice for digitization a biological laboratory electrophoretic gel related image.

Periodic auto-scan (Time-Lapse)
With high-stability performance and a customized periodic auto-scan function, Bio-5050 can record the variation of the tested images for further analysis.It is a better cost-effective solution for ELISA-related experiment.

Multi-function Gel documentation equipment
With the twin-bed design, Bio-5050 can scan electrophoresis gels, films, rapid test strip and documents to improve the efficiency of laboratory imaging operations. The built-in autofocus design ensures flexible and high-precision image capture equipment.

Leak-Proof & Customized Template
25x20cm large leak-proof tray is designed to carry electrophoresis gel, film and transparent samples. The leak-proof design avoids damage to the scanner. The flexible design is easy to customize a template to use for different test samples.

Features List
Ultra-High Scan Stability (CV < 1%):Features an exceptional Coefficient of Variation (CV value of 0.5% at 1D and 1% at 2D). This superior stability ensures highly reproducible, accurate image density capture, making it a reliable tool for precise quantitative analysis.
Time-Series Scanning (Time-Lapse):Equipped with a programmable periodic scanning function. Users can customize specific time intervals and repeat cycles to automatically capture sample images over time, perfectly documenting gradual biological changes.
Dual-Platform & Auto-Focus Design:Offers dual scanning beds—an 8” x 10” transparency area for gels/films and an 8.5” x 14” reflective bed for document reports. The built-in hardware auto-focus dynamically adjusts the CCD module to deliver crystal-clear image layers.
Large Removable Leak-Free Holder:Features a large 25 x 20 cm liquid-tight glass tray that completely contains liquids from wet electrophoresis gels, protecting internal electronics and allowing easy custom tray swapping for various sample types.
Wide Linear Dynamic Range:Delivers 2400 dpi optical resolution and a true 0.0D to 3.4D optical density range with 48-bit color depth, ensuring that even extremely faint bands or subtle color gradations are faithfully digitized without data loss.
Applications / Use Cases
Quantitative Electrophoresis & Gel Digitalization:Tailored for molecular biology laboratories needing high-fidelity digital archiving and precise quantitative mapping of 1D/2D electrophoresis gels or sensitive X-ray autoradiography films.
Rapid Diagnostic Strip (IVD) Batches:The spacious scanning bed and flat architecture make it perfect for running multi-lane Rapid Test kits, lateral flow assays, or rapid screening strips simultaneously.
Colorimetric Assay & Tube Inspections:Widely used to verify sample reactions in customized multi-well holders or color comparison tubes where structural stability and uniform illumination are critical.
Biological Chronological Studies:Ideal for research labs conducting time-dependent biological monitoring, enabling hands-free tracking of gel migration patterns or reaction changes across strict timelines.
