UVIchrom-pro is an inexpensive system, specially designed for PC-based documentation and analysis of thin layer chromatography (TLC) plates.

It is similar to the UVIpro system (see p4), but has a different darkroom cabinet and UV light source, plus a slightly modified software package in which the Molecular weight analysis function is replaced by Rf value calculation.
The UVIchrom darkroom hood is designed for efficient overhead UV illumination and imaging of thin layer chromatography plates. It incorporates four powerful (15 watt) UV tubes of optional wavelengths, positioned two on each side, above and close to the sample for maximum efficiency and uniformity of illumination. The camera is fixed to a special central mounting unit. White light illumination to aid sample positioning is also incorporated into the hood. The cabinet will allow imaging of plates in excess of 20 x 20cm.
UVIchrom can also be used with a high quality (3 CCD chip) colour camera and a dye sublimation printer. These can be supplied (at additional cost) in place of the standard 8-bit monochrome CCD camera and b+w thermal printer.
- Simple, low cost system specially designed for TLC plate documentation
- Specially designed darkroom cabinet for efficient and powerful overhead illumination of TLC plates
- Specially adapted UVIpro software allows basic image analysis with Rf value calculation for TLC spots
- Optional 3 CCD Colour Camera plus Dye Sublimation printer for exceptional results
In addition to the standard, PC-based UVIchrom-pro system (PAS-5000), there is also a stand-alone (UVIdoc-type) system, the UVIchrom-doc (PAS-4000). This has the same darkroom cabinet, camera and printer as the UVIchrom-pro, but the PC acquisition card and software are replaced by a stand-alone control unit offering the same features and functions as the UVIdoc system. UVIchrom-doc is not available with the colour camera and printer option.
