Request InfoSpectronics Corp., SpectrolineWESTBURY, N.Y., Jan. 7, 2011 — The Spectroline Bi-O-Vision Series two-in-one transilluminators manufactured by Spectronics Corp. feature two workstations, producing both 312-nm ultraviolet and white light. The TD-1000R model offers fixed-intensity, while the TVD-1000R model offers variable-intensity control of either UV or white light. These units are continuously adjustable from 100% down to 50%, enabling life sciences researchers to select the exact ultraviolet or white light illumination needed to photodocument samples with a single piece of equipment. The UV-B (312 nm) intensity of the Bi-O-Vision can be...See full productRelated content from Photonics MediaPRODUCTSPhotonics.com 6/15/2023Water Disinfection SystemThe PearlAqua Micro A UV-C LED water disinfection system from AquiSense Technologies deploys patented reactor technology and high-volume manufacturing capabilities into a small footprint for...BioPhotonics Jan/Feb 2024 IssueCarbon DotsThe line of carbon dots from Alfa Chemistry are carbon-based zero-dimensional material in water-soluble and oil-soluble form.
