iCyte®
Automated Imaging Cytometer |
 |
| First introduced in 2002, the
iCyte® Automated Imaging Cytometer is designed to meet the demand in the biotechnology and pharmaceutical markets for automated high-content cellular analyzers which provide for higher throughput. Among its many advanced features is the ability to precisely measure cellular DNA content – essential in toxicological studies – and simultaneously combine the information gathered from these measurements with other molecular markers and cell morphology. The iCyte’s unique software offers unprecedented flexibility in data analysis. |
|
 |
|
| While the instrument relies on the basic laser scanning technology, its unique features include: |
|
- Morphological and quantitative features for very high content cell-based analysis
- Multiple lasers and photomultipliers for flexible dye combinations
- Compatibility with a variety of carriers, including microtiter plates and microscope slides, for unsurpassed specimen flexibility
- Automated or manual operation modes
- Cellular and tissue specimen analysis
- Open assay development and data reporting platforms to accommodate rapidly changing discovery needs
|
|
| iCyte enables fully automated, walk-away analysis of cellular specimens. New features include: |
|
- Robotic specimen loader with 45-tray
capacity, allowing walk-away experimental analysis
- Optional iNovator™ Application Development
Toolkit, enabling fully automated tissue identification and
scan region selection. Accurate quantitative measurement of
tissue fluorescence is enhanced by novel background
fluorescence subtraction techniques
- Flexible iBrowser™ Data Integration
software, facilitating post-acquisition analysis of large
volumes of generated data
