Agricultural Experiment Station (AES) Plant Pathology

The PGW40 equips the researcher with a walk-in environment accessible from two large doors on the front of the chamber. This model is ideally suited for research involving taller classified plants. The extended growth height ensures that most plants can be grown to full maturity within a moderate to high light regime. Also available with the PGW40 are low-temp options for running the chamber at temperatures below the standard 4˚C. A defrost option is also available which prevents a temperature rise during the defrost cycle.

The GR64 is a highly economical platform for providing a controlled environment in a walk-in configuration. This chamber offers low to moderate level light intensities using multiple light canopies. The temperature range is narrower than on other Conviron walk-in chambers which affords greater energy efficiency and economy. The multi-lamp-canopy configuration enables researchers to have several experiments running simultaneously with plants at varying levels of maturity.

The Ion Chef™ System* is the next generation of workflow simplification products for the Ion Proton™ and Ion PGM™ systems. The Ion Chef™ System provides automated, high-throughput template preparation and reproducible chip loading for users at any experience level. With typically less than 15 minutes of hands-on time, an intuitive touch-screen interface, and significantly higher productivity than the Ion OneTouch™ 2 System, the Ion Chef™ System makes the Ion Torrent™ sequencing workflow accessible for every lab.

The 4300 System is a third generation instrument based on LI-COR Biosciences' highly sensitive infrared fluorescence detection technology.
4300 instrumentation, software, reagents, and applications are all part of an integrated system designed to achieve the highest accuracy. Infrared detection is a key advantage since biological molecules, gels, and glass plates have little infrared fluorescence. With low background fluorescence, dye signals are clean and strong. Infrared detection gives 4300 DNA Analyzers excellent sensitivity.
