HY-1M, Hydra Series TLC Scanners

APPLICATION: TRACER METHODOLOGY IN BIOCHEMISTRY, BIOMED & CLINICAL LAB, RADIOPHARMACY , NUCLEAR MEDICINE.

The HY-1 series instruments are automatic scanners for TLC's, gels, paper chromatograms and electrophoreses. A moving 2'' x 12'' plate carries a 20 cm TLC or other sample in controlled steps under a bridge, examines trace on the sample and transfers information to coupled computer. Detectors are interchangeable. Normally supplied is a thin window scintillation detector highly sensitive to low energy gammas (such as those from I¹²⁵ Tc^99m, Fe⁵⁹ etc.) plus gammas of all energies above 20 KeV (I¹³¹, Cr⁵¹, Co⁵⁷, etc.) and betas above 500 KeV (P³², etc.).

Included in the computer is pulse height analysis resolution and ``Isotope Bank: to allow immediate visualization and estimation of Isotopic content. The multi-channel analyzer card in the computer with its associated software added to the localization and quantification of radioactive content in the peak analyzer section of computer makes the HY-1 a full function, versatile, TLC scanner.
