1. Gel Documentation system(Gel Doc)

2. Gel Documentation system
Equipment widely used in molecular biology laboratories for the imaging and documentation of nucleic acid and protein suspended in agarose gels and polyacrylamide gels
Other name: Gel image system or Gel imager
Gel Documentation system has a specific light source so, before taking image of gel, it should be stained with fluorophores such as ethidium bromide or SYBR green which is matched to the light source of gel doc
