Imaging Cameras
No imaging system is complete without a digital camera
In order to complete an EasyRatioPro
system, a digital camera must be selected.
Photon Technology has selected only our
best quality and performing cameras, the
CoolOne series. You may also select one
of the excellent Roper Scientific cameras
to complement the system. Within these
camera companies, there is a large selection
of cameras to meet your performance
and budget.
Electron Multiplier CCD Cameras
The principal difference between a
charge multiplying CCD and a traditional
CCD is the presence of a special extended
serial register called the multiplication register.
This special, signal boosting process
occurs before the charge reaches the
readout amplifier, effectively reducing the
CCD read noise by the on-chip multiplication
gain factor, which can be greater that
1000x. The main benefit of the technology
is a far better signal to noise ratio for signals
below the CCD read-noise floor.
You would select one of these types or cameras for applications like:
- Single molecule fluorescence
- Live cell GFP imaging
Traditional CCD Cameras
These CCD's offer excellent resolution
and price/performance. High QE across visible spectrum into NIR make
them excellent for monochrome imaging.
A megapixel array, 20 and 10 MHz operation,
Turbo 1394T interface available
(FireWire®) make them a good choice for
high special resolution applications.
Select one of these cameras for the following applications:
- Live-cell imaging
- High-speed emission ratio imaging
- Low-copy gene analysis and gene expression profiling
- Quantitative FRET, FRAP, FISH
- Luminescence
