Applied Technologies
Automatic Sample DetectionPlace your sample in the sample holder, and the smart sample navigator automatically acquires a macro image. The AI then locates your sample on the slide and automatically positions it above the objective, so that you can choose the observation method and immediately begin capturing images. | Related Videos |

Gradient ContrastAcquiring sharp images at the edges of a well in a multi-well plate can be challenging. The contrast is poor even when using oblique contrast, and DIC does not work well with plastic containers. Using our unique gradient contrast method, you can capture sharp images in a wider area and with higher contrast than the conventional method.

Tools for Clearer ImagesPhotobleaching Prevention ModeThe APX100 system’s photobleaching prevention mode minimizes light exposure and phototoxicity. The fluorescence illuminator only emits excitation light for the time it takes to acquire the image. The static image is then displayed on the screen, providing time to take measurements or evaluate captures. |
Reduces the Halo Effect in Phase Contrast ImagingThe system can reduce the halo-like artifacts that are sometimes visible in phase contrast observations, making sample structures easier to observe. | ![]() Neuro 2a cells Left: Original image / Right: Halo-like artifacts reduced by the software |
Automated Correction for Uneven SamplesThe built-in focus map allows you to set different focal planes for imaging while also correcting for sample tilt. Obtain sharp stitched images with no focus shift, even for thick, uneven samples. |

Experiment Data Management and Analysis
Images Are Organized and Easy to FindThe APX100 microscope has a dedicated system to organize and store your data. When you acquire an image, the software automatically creates folders for each sample and saves the data into the correct one. The consistent indexing keeps your data organized and easy to locate. |
Recall Image Acquisition SettingsThe APX100 system saves all important acquisition settings with the image data, making it easy to recall experiment conditions. |
Image Processing and Analysis Functions that Accelerate ResearchOur advanced cellSens image processing and analysis software works seamlessly with the APX100 system, providing you the tools to process and analyze your data quickly and efficiently. |
