The Alliance Q9 Advanced is a fully automated, high-sensitivity Chemidoc imaging platform designed for advanced chemiluminescence, fluorescence, and bioluminescence imaging. As part of Uvitec’s top-end Q9 series, this system delivers exceptional optical performance, precision quantification, and complete workflow flexibility for research laboratories, proteomics facilities, and molecular biology environments.

Engineered with pre-calibrated high-performance optics, a custom f/0.80 lens, and -60°C regulated cooling, the Alliance Q9 Advanced ensures superior signal detection—even for extremely faint chemiluminescent Western blots. With up to 18-megapixel resolution, the system produces publication-ready images with outstanding clarity and dynamic range.

Designed for scalability, the Q9 Advanced is fully upgradeable via plug-and-play technology, allowing laboratories to expand capabilities as research evolves. A 7-position motorized filter wheel enables seamless multi-channel imaging, while unlimited software users support collaborative lab environments.
