Cytation 5 Cell Imaging Multi-Mode Reader

Cytation™ 5 combines automated digital microscopy and conventional microplate detection in a configurable, upgradable platform. The microscopy module offers up to 60x magnification in fluorescence, brightfield, high contrast brightfield, color brightfield and phase contrast for maximum applications reach.  The multi-mode detection modules include filter- and monochromator-based fluorescence  detection, luminescence and UV-Vis absorbance detection. Gen5™ software provides complete control over all imaging and data capture, plus powerful image and data analysis.
 

• Modular digital microscopy and multi-mode detection, each with independent optical components
• CO₂/O₂ control, incubation and shaking for live cell assays
• Wide field of view camera for fast whole well imaging
• Label-free cell counting for cell proliferation studies
• More than 20 imaging filter/LED cube colors reach many applications
• Patented Hybrid optics: sensitivity of filters, flexibility of monochromator
• Variable bandwidth monochromators optimize fluorophore detection
• 100 mW Alpha Laser: Speed and performance-based excitation for Alpha assays
• Modular design
• Peltier Cooling Module maintains environmental stability for uncompromised assay integrity
