Agilent BioTek Cytation 1 Cell Imaging Multimode Reader
Cell Imaging Multi-Mode Reader
Analyze in vitro growth assays
While this instrument and corresponding analysis software is pretty user-friendly and easy to use, we have ran into a few questions when setting up new assays. The customer support has been amazingly helpful, from both our local sales representative to the regional customer support team. Both of them have been very prompt in responding to our questions, and really make you feel like they want you to get the most out of their instrument.

Antimicrobial assay, anticancer assay, enzyme inhibition assays, phytochemical profiling
The product is very useful for what we want to do. The learning curve is simple which makes its use easy for undergraduate students. Having the imaging capabilities has moved our research and teaching labs to the next level. We expect that the modularity of the instrument we benefit us as we can add new functionalities as future needs develop.

The Agilent BioTek Cytation 1 cell imaging multimode reader combines fluorescence and high contrast brightfield imaging with conventional multimode detection. This affordable imaging reader delivers performance and economy compared to other digital microscopy systems.
The BioTek Cytation 1 design provides both quantitative phenotypic cellular data with well-based quantitative data. The multimode detection module has high sensitivity filter-based fluorescence and a monochromator for UV-Vis absorbance. Temperature control and shaking are standard. CO2/O2 control and reagent injectors are available. Gen5 software simplifies image capture and plate reading.
