The Odyssey® Infrared Imaging System sweeps away the old paradigms of chemiluminescence and visible fluorescence, and introduces a new standard for Western blot analysis – direct infrared fluorescence detection. Infrared detection gives you the quantitative analysis and wide linear dynamic range that chemiluminescence can’t. Strong and weak bands on the same blot are accurately detected without the uncertainty and inconvenience of multiple exposures, and without spending time in the darkroom. The Odyssey System gives you clear, sharp, reproducible bands without fuzziness or “blowout”. Bands hidden by overexposure with chemiluminescence become clear when imaged with Odyssey.

Accurate Quantification
Wide linear dynamic range

Multiplex Detection
Normalization increases quantification accuracy

High Sensitivity
Equal to or better than chemiluminescence

Direct Detection
No film, darkroom, or messy substrates

Clear Data
No loss of weak bands due to overexposed bands

Wide Range of Applications
Western blots, Coomassie® stained gels, cell-based assays, fluorescent gel-shift assays, tissue imaging, in vivo imaging, protein arrays, and more.
