With the growth of research into iPS cells, genome editing, and other aspects of regenerative medicine, the demand has also increased for efficient high-volume culturing of cells for use in various experimental and other research activities. Cells are grown in culture vessels using a growth medium that provides nutrients. Once cell growth has proceeded to a certain extent, some of the cells are transferred to a new culture vessel where growth can continue. Our cell culture microscope and confluency checker provide an easy way to perform cell counts and density measurements in the culture vessel. The periodic collection of quantitative data also facilitates quality control of the cell culturing process. Less time is required to record information about the cell culture—prior to transfer, for example—and the quality of the culture is more reliable.
The APEXVIEW APX100 all-in-one microscope makes it fast and simple to acquire expert-quality microscope images. Built with renowned Olympus optics, an intuitive user interface, a powerful AI, and a suite of smart features, the APX100 system combines the ease of use of an all-in-one-microscope with high-quality image data to fit your research needs.
Optimized for basic multicolor fluorescence imaging and routine experiments, the IXplore Standard system is easy to operate and ergonomically designed.
