Cell Imaging Service—Live-cell Spinning Disk Confocal

As cell research advances, so does the need for cell imaging technology. Today's researchers need a continuous flow of dynamic, long-term experiments on cell migration, interactions, and responses to environmental disturbances that cannot be met by conventional microscopes that can only observe stationary cells. Creative Bioarray' Live-cell Spinning Disk Confocal-based live cell imaging technology can meet your stringent experimental needs.

Name of the Instrument/Platform

Live-cell Spinning Disk Confocal

Introduction

Specifications 1. Yokogawa CSU22: High-speed spinning Nipkow disk with microlenses 2. Zeiss AxioObserver.Z1 inverted microscope, fully motorized platform 3. Three >40mW solid-state lasers at 473, 561 and 658 nm 4. 3i Slidebook software for intuitive data acquisition 5. Copy of software at workstation for 3D viewing & analysis (also Volocity software for 3D viewing and analysis)

Summary
