Opis

Opis ogólny

BAS Storage Phosphor Screens for use with phosphorimager systems are a faster and more sensitive alternative to autoradiography.

Broad application range: suitable for 3H, 125I, 14C, 32P, 33P, 35S and more

Storage phosphor screens capture latent images produced by ionizing radiation, including X-rays, β particles emitted from radioisotopes commonly used in research (e.g. 3H, 14C, 32P, 33P, and 35S), and γ rays (e.g. from 125I, 131I, and 99mTC). Upon laser-induced stimulation, light is emitted from the storage phosphor screen in proportion to the amount of radioactivity in the sample. The resulting digital image allows for quantitation of subtle signal intensity differences over a wide dynamic range using a storage phosphorimager system (e.g. Typhoon, Storm, or PhosphorImager) together with analysis software such as ImageQuant. Typically, 50% to 90% less exposure time is required compared with an equivalent exposure to conventional autoradiography film. Publication quality images are often obtained in a single exposure.

How storage phosphor screens work

A storage phosphor screen is a film-like sensor designed to trap and store radiation energy in a stable state. BAS Storage Phosphor Screens contain a photostimulable layer of phosphor particles (BaFBr) sandwiched between a protective layer and a support film coated with trace amounts of bivalent europium (Eu2+) as a luminescence center. Particles in the phosphor layer stably absorb ionizing radiation, which is later released as blue-violet light (400nm) upon laser stimulation in a storage phosphorimager system. Storage phosphor screens are reusable* and are not degraded by repeated exposure to laboratory levels of radioactivity. To reuse, simply expose a screen to the extra-bright light of an ImageEraser light box.

Product selection Three types of BAS Storage Phosphor Screen are available to suit differing applications:

• Multipurpose Standard (MS) screens: Suitable for use with ionizing radiation from isotopes such as 14C, 125I, 131I, 32P, 35S, and 99mTc. This is the screen of choice for 32P Northerns and Southerns and 125I Western blots and gels.
• Super Resolution (SR) screens: Provide higher resolution where a pixel resolution of 50 μm is required; compatible with storage phosphor imaging systems such as Amersham™ Typhoon™, Typhoon FLA 7000, Typhoon FLA 7000 IP, and Typhoon FLA 9500.
• Tritium (TR) screens: Highly sensitive screens constructed without a protective layer, for detection of the weak energy of 3H emissions. Optimal results are obtained when the tritium signal is on the surface of the sample and available to penetrate the screen. Since these screens lack of protective layer, TR screens are for single-use.

Cechy i korzyści

• Szybkość: zazwyczaj od 50 do 90% krótszy czas ekspozycji w porównaniu z konwencjonalnymi kliszami do autoradiografii.
• Wysoka czułość: Do 100× większa czułość niż w przypadku klisz do autoradiografii, w zależności od izotopu i rodzaju próbki.
• Szeroki zakres dynamiczny (pięć rzędów wielkości): Wizualizacja i kwantyfikacja zarówno słabych, jak i silnych sygnałów podczas jednej ekspozycji.
• Ilościowy: Wyniki są digitalizowane za pomocą systemu fosforoimagera (np. Typhoon, Storm lub PhosphorImager) i dokładnie określane ilościowo za pomocą oprogramowania ImageQuant.
• Bezpieczne i ekonomiczne: Ekrany fosforowe wielokrotnego użytku nie wymagają stosowania chemikaliów, ciemni ani innych specjalnych zabiegów.
• Wygoda: Każdy etap można wykonać na stanowisku laboratoryjnym w normalnych warunkach oświetleniowych i w temperaturze pokojowej.
