Live-cell analysis system

Fast, accurate, and automated brightfield and fluorescent cell counting

Lux3 BR is a small brightfield live-cell imager, equipped with a high-quality 6.4 MP CMOS camera. It is designed to work inside a standard cell culture incubator without disturbing temperature, airflow, and optimum culture conditions. Detailed brightfield images can be captured using the new device. In both x- and y-direction, 2072 pixels combined with 1.45 mm field of view provide a resolution of 0.7 µm/pixel. 

High-throughput live-cell analysis system

The iNSiGHT DXA system is an in vivo Dual Energy X-Ray Absorptiometry (DXA/DEXA) technology for preclinical research.

Metrohm presents Combustion IC (CIC), a fully automated system for the simultaneous determination of halogens and sulfur in widely differing matrices. With CIC, unlike with alternative methods the concentrations of the different halogens can each be shown separately. Moreover, digestion by pyrolysis is superior to offline digestion methods with regard to sample throughput and precision and correctness of results. CIC is ideal…

Reliable Drop Setting: Reduce Costs + Increase Reproducibility The NT8 ® - Drop Setter/Crystallization Robot is a fast, nanoliter-volume liquid handler with drop dispensing capability, including setting drops for Lipidic Cubic Phase (LCP) experiments. The 8-tip head aspirates and dispenses drops from 10 nL to 1.5 μL.

The MANTIS automated liquid dispenser excels at accurate, low-volume dispensing in a wide variety of scientific workflows. The system is an easy and affordable solution to quickly increase the reproducibility and quality of your research as well as the throughput and efficiency of your laboratory. 

Build Crystallization Screens with Ease The FORMULATOR ® - Screen Builder is a next-generation liquid handler specifically designed for Protein Crystallography that uses patented microfluidic technology to dispense up to 34 different ingredients to design even the most complex optimization screens. A 96-nozzle dispensing chip can dispense any volume of any ingredient of any viscosity into any well.

The TEMPEST ®  is a high throughput, multiple reagent dispensing platform. With up-to 96 independently controllable dispensing nozzles it can be a plate-filling workhorse or a flexible assay-development partner, adapting to your needs on the fly. Used in a broad range of application areas such as cell-based and biochemical assays; molecular biology and NGS; as well as high-throughput screening.

Transform biomolecular interaction analysis with Alto™, the world’s first Digital SPR™ system, featuring zero maintenance and cartridge-based characterization from ultra-low sample volumes.

The HoloMonitor ® live cell imaging system enables long-term non-invasive analysis of cell cultures within your standard incubator. Cell biologists worldwide use PHI’s label-free cell imager to automatically obtain accurate live-cell morphology, migration, and proliferation data as well as multi-well time-lapse videos, down to a single-cell level in real-time.

The HoloMonitor ® live cell imaging system enables long-term non-invasive analysis of cell cultures within your standard incubator. With the latest add-on fluorescence module, cell biologists benefit from minimizing light exposure and reducing photocytotoxicity when automatically obtaining accurate live-cell morphology, migration, proliferation data, and multi-well time-lapse videos down to a single-cell level in real-time.

In-situ reaction monitoring analyzer

Genizer Jacketed Liposome Extruder

The Genizer Online Extruder works with a high-pressure homogenizer to reduce the number of passes needed for optimal liposome size distribution and desired particle sizes. The homogenizer's diamond interaction chamber pre-treats the liposome sample to the nanoscale.

The Absorbance 96 is the world’s most compact microplate reader. The vision behind the device was to give the user complete flexibility.
