azim58 - Which scanner is better for Grace Biolabs Nitrocellulose slides?


I scanned some Grace Biolabs Nitrocellulose slides printed with SMC1fs
cell lysate in both the Agilent scanner in our lab as well as the Tecan
Power Scanner in Josh Lebaer's lab. The Tecan Power scanner seems to be
the better scanner. However, the agilent scanner seems fairly acceptable
as well.

Here's a numerical comparison of the two scanners. These Results come
from the 12-14-11 experiment.

Agilent Ratio of 1/100 lysate spot dilution to background:1.65
Tecan Power Scanner Ratio of 1/100 lysate spot dilution to background:
  1. 75
