Agilent BioTek Cytation C10 Confocal Imaging Reader

The Cytation C10 combines automated confocal and widefield microscopy with conventional multimode microplate reading in a unique, proprietary design. For Research Use Only. Not for use in diagnostic procedures.

Brand:  Agilent BioTek C10MIPW-SN

Product Code. 17993031

Description

• The automated water-immersion objectives capture more light, driving lower exposure times and reducing phototoxic impacts on live cells.
• Cytation C10 also includes widefield fluorescence, brightfield, and phase contrast optics.
• Onboard environmental controls enable live cell assays. Multiplate live cell assays are accomplished with Cytation C10 integrated with the Agilent BioTek BioSpa 8 automated incubator.
• Cytation C10 offers affordable, benchtop confocal imaging for every laboratory
• Confocal microscopy enables improved image quality and analysis, revealing a level of detail in samples that is not possible with widefield optics
• High-quality optical components, including the Hamamatsu sCMOS Orca camera, Semrock filters, Olympus objectives, and other well-known brands, allow the capture of stunning, publication-quality images
• Combination of spinning disk confocal and widefield imaging plus multimode reader, allows the Cytation C10 to be ready for any assay with a modular, upgradable design
• An available 60 µm deep sectioning disk (DSD) allows a clear view into thicker samples
• Widefield imaging allows for faster acquisition of large samples at lower magnification, while confocal images small intracellular details or 3D samples, and both modes together provide highly multiplexed, multiparameter imaging experiments
• Environmental controls, including incubation and CO2/O2 control and monitoring, facilitate live cell imaging
• Imaging plus multimode detection and the hit-picking function quickly prescreen the microplate with the plate reader optics, then automatically image the samples that meet your hit criteria, saving time and data storage capacity
• Variable bandwidth, quad monochromator plate reader optics enhance assay performance, including increased sensitivity and specificity
• Combination of confocal and widefield imaging with multimode detection increases productivity with the ability to be ready for any application
