FAQs
What are the benefits of using ImageXpress Nano Automated Imaging System?
ImageXpress Nano offers several benefits, including the rapid acquisition of label-free brightfield images without the need for harmful fluorescent agents and streamlined image analysis with a modular toolbox for setting up routine assays and turnkey analysis modules for added convenience. The system's flexibility in capturing a diverse range of samples, from whole-well imaging (e.g., C. elegans, zebrafish) to sub-cellular details (vesicles, organelles) at different magnifications (2x to 60x), makes it a powerful tool for a wide range of cell imaging and microscopy studies.
How does an Automated Cellular Imaging System differ from manual microscopy?
An Automated Cellular Imaging System relies on known sample layout, combined with robust autofocusingto capture and analyze cell images automatically, allowing high-throughput imaging of multiple samples. In contrast, manual microscopy requires manual manipulation of samples and limited throughput, making it less efficient for large-scale studies.
How does an Automated Imaging System expedite the phenotypic analysis process?
Automated image capture and analysis systems significantly reduce the time and effort required for phenotypic analysis, enabling researchers to obtain results faster and accelerate their research.
