AnalytikJena's Model TL-2000 UV Translinker includes the shortwave UV CL-1000 Crosslinker and an M-20 type transilluminator built onto the crosslinker cabinet. It supplies uniform intensity overhead UV exposure of materials inside the chamber and uses midrange 302nm UV for transillumination. The shortwave ultraviolet energy bonds DNA to a medium. Ultraviolet Crosslinking for attaching nucleic acids to a membrane takes seconds as compared to oven baking.

AnalytikJena Crosslinkers offer researchers an instrument to quickly, safely and efficiently expose samples to a controlled amount of ultraviolet radiation. A unique UV sensor continually measures the UV energy and automatically adjusts to variations in UV intensity that occurs as the UV tubes age. This same UV sensor feedback measurement system allows you to set UV sample exposure, which automatically deactivates the UV sources when the set UV energy dose has been achieved.

Applications:

Exposure of samples to UV provides for the following processes:

• Crosslinking of DNA or RNA to nitrocellulose, nylon or reinforced nitrocellulose,
• PCR sample contamination control,
• Photoniking of DNA,
• Testing RNA function,
• Rapid site mapping,
• UV sterilization and sanitization,
• UV curing.

Features:

• Preset and manual controls for ultraviolet or time exposures:
• Factory presettings deliver 120,000 microjoules or 5 minutes of exposure,
• Maximum UV energy setting of 999,900 microjoules per cm2.
• Integrated UV sensor for measurement and exposure control is calibrated at the UVP factory to ensure accuracy and reliability,
• Microprocessor output control optimizes the use of energy while ensuring consistent, maximum energy efficiency and output,
• Large LED display with touch panel displays time or energy settings,
• On/Off controls for the transilluminator are located on the crosslinker panel,
• Window on the door allows viewing of the process yet blocks the UV radiation,  
• Small footprint for benchtop use,
• Five 8-watt ultraviolet tubes provide uniform overhead ultraviolet illumination,
• Transilluminator has a 20 x 20cm active area with midrange 302nm UVB illumination,
• An ultraviolet blocking cover shields the user from UV radiation.
