Bio-imaging equipment

The lattice lightsheet is a rapid and gentle live cell imaging system. It is ideal for imaging sensitive processes, experiments requiring high temporal resolution or those requiring longer-term imaging.  

Capabilities

• Gentle fast imaging of live cells at high resolution
• Inverted microscope
• Z-stack and tile scanning
• Incubation for temperature and CO2 control
• Compatible with slides, chamber slides, multi-well plates and chamber slides with skirt <0.5mm and glass thickness #1.5 (1.60mm-190mm)
