The Xstrahl RS225 Molecular Research System
The Xstrahl RS225 X-Ray irradiator enables safe irradiation of in vitro and in vivo biological samples within a laboratory environment.
Meeting the needs of medical and biological research, this self contained cabinet incorporates the irradiation chamber and system electronics in one enclosure and ionizing radiation is produced by a controllable electronic system. In addition to removing the regulatory burden associated with the use of radioactive sources, the Xstrahl RS225 provides a smaller, safer, simpler and less costly alternative to radioisotope irradiators for radiation exposure studies.
