Ecl chemiluminescence system

Manufactured by Merck Group
Sourced in United States, Germany

The ECL chemiluminescence system is a laboratory equipment designed for the detection and quantification of proteins in Western blotting analyses. It utilizes a chemiluminescent reaction to generate light, which is then captured and measured by a detection device. The system provides a sensitive and reliable method for visualizing target proteins in complex biological samples.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
