Safety and Regulatory Compliance

Important Safety Information

Please read these instructions before operating the ChemiDoc™ imager.
This instrument is suitable for research use only. Therefore, it must be used only by
specialized personnel who know the health risks associated with the reagents that are
normally used with this instrument.
To perform band excision using the Chemi/UV/Stain-Free tray, the transilluminator drawer
is pulled out with the UV source enabled. This exposes the user to UV radiation, which can
cause permanent damage to the eyes and skin. In its lowered position, the instrument's
acrylic shield provides UV protection. However, in its raised position, it does not provide
complete protection to the user, and it does not protect others who are standing in the area
around the imager.
WARNING: The imaging of some applications involves UV illumination.
This instrument should be used only by trained personnel who know the
health risks associated with the UV radiation normally associated with this
instrument. Users should be trained on the appropriate personal protection
gear for working with UV light to minimize UV exposure.
