Gel Document System
• Gel documentation , also known as Gel doc.
system , Gel image system , or Gel imager.
• It is widely used in molecular biology laboratories
for imaging and documentation of nucleic acid
and protein polyacrylamide or agarose gels
typically stained with ethidium bromide .
• Generally , a gel doc. is composed of ultraviolet (
UV ) light transilluminator , a hood to shield
external light sources and CCTV camera for image
capturing

How Does Ethidium Bromide stain DNA
4/9/2018 3Gel Document system
PRINCIPLE
• Principle of fluorescence with fluorescent staining
of nucleic acids , a fluorescent substance that has
bound to nucleic acid is exited by ultraviolet
irradiation and emits fluorescent light.
• Ethidium bromide binds specifically to nucleic
acid and the amount of bonding depends on the
molecular weight and concentration of the
nucleic acid.
• In other words , a band for a large amount will
shine brighter ; conversely , fluorescence will be
weaker for a band for a small amount.

PURPOSE AND ANALYSIS
• Photography of stained gel.
• Print out of photographic data.
• Image data is displayed in real time.
• Image still displayed can be printed
out with a video printer or saved to a
compact flash media for future use

COMPONENTS OF GEL DOC. SYSTEM
Camera : Ultraviolet camera ranging from 1.4m upto
8.3m pixel.
Lenses : All lanses are computer controlled and motor
driven. Here lances automatically tracks upwards or
downwards movements of sample using auto focus.
Filters : There is an extensive range of emission filters
use for an array of applications.
 Over head illuminator : White light , Ultra violet light ,
and LED lighting option
Visible light : For extending the transmitted light
application. Visible light convert screen for visible light
application.

COMPONENTS OF GEL DOC. SYSTEM
Adjustable stage : This enables samples to be
moved closer to the camera.
Darkroom : dark room is suitable for advanced
chemiluminescence, fluorescence and visible light
application. An electronic auto-door lock with
security function prevents interruption to long
exposures. Transilluminator : It has a variable
intensity setting and has a safety cut-off.

QUANTITY ONE FROM BIORED
 It is user friendly version windows based option.
 It has a various tool for image capturing and
transformation.
 There is a separate tool for identifying , detecting and
drawing lense and bands.
 There is a separate function for storing standard data ,
standard curve for known molecular weight and size.
 A separate volume analysis tool for volume contour , free
hand , rectangle circle and array.
 The software also has options for VNTR display , VNTR
calculation , differential display and colony counting
applictions.
