Analysis
With Gen5™ software you acquire high quality images across a broad range of applications. Augmented Microscopy™ automates the steps of a typical microscopy workflow, making image capture, processing, and analysis easy and powerful, to produce publication-ready images and data.

Secondary masks quantify mean fluorescent signal from labeled targets. Subpopulation analysis identifies cells responding to treatment.

The graph shows % of cytotoxic cells over time after exposure to 30 or 100 µM Oridonin.
Workflow Automation
Cytation integrates with BioSpa™ 8 and BioStack™ for automated multi-mode and live cell imaging workflows.
