Comparison:
The K5 and THUNDER Imager 3D Assay enables clear identification of Alpha (GFP-green) and Beta (mCardinal-red) cells within a developing zebrafish pancreas. Imaged in the blue (Hoechst), green (GFP), and red (mCardinal) channels, this 150-image z-stack was completed with all channels within a minute.
