United Scientific SA cc is proud to announce the successful installation and user training of the UVIDOC HD6 Gel Documentation System at the HIV Pathogenesis Programme (HPP) Medical School at the University of KwaZulu-Natal. The installation and hands-on training were led by Faeeza Mahomed Ally, Equipment Division Manager, ensuring the research team is fully equipped to maximise the system’s capabilities.

The UVIDOC HD6 Ultimate is a powerful, stand-alone gel documentation system designed for high-performance DNA and protein gel imaging. It supports a wide range of fluorescence applications, including DNA and RNA gels stained with Ethidium Bromide, GelRed, GelGreen, SYBR Safe, Green & Gold, Sypro Ruby, Emerald, Midori Green, and more. In addition, the system offers visible imaging for protein gels and colorimetric applications such as Coomassie Blue, Copper, Silver-stained, Red Ponceau, as well as Petri dish colony imaging and colony counting.

With its unique stand-alone design and voice-controlled operation, the UVIDOC HD6 is ideal for busy, space-constrained laboratories. The system delivers automation, ease of use, and high sensitivity—making it a valuable addition to advanced research environments where reliability and efficiency are critical.
