Basic Gel Documentation - Doc-Print II - Vilber Lourmat

Doc-Print II is a stand-alone imaging system dedicated to basic gel documentation. Thanks to its built-in CompactFlash media drive, the images are saved on a CompactFlash and can be comfortably processed at a separate location. The system also supports a thermal printer for cost-effective instant photographs.

Doc-Print II combines simplicity and economy for laboratories with budget in mind. The system is supplied with the Photo-Capt software for quantification and publishing.
