Fluorescence – Fusion Optics:
Spark can be equipped with filters, Tecan’s state-of-the-art QuadX Monochromators™ double monochromator system or a combination of both. Unlike hybrid multimode readers
SPARK-CYTO - PLATE READER WITH LIVE CELL IMAGING AND REAL-TIME CYTOMETRY
Spark Cyto is a multi-mode plate reader with fluorescence imaging and cytometry capabilities, unlocking new possibilities for your cell-based research.Spark Cyto works in real -time, using parallel data acquisition and analysis- to deliver meaningful insights faster than before
A dedicated optical set-up for live-cell cytometry in microplates
- The Spark Cyto fluorescence imaging module is designed to deliver crisp images with minimal user intervention.
- Spark Cyto incorporates three objectives that can easily be selected on the fly in the SparkControl™ software:
- Composite images without the pixel shift
- Autofocus enabled – Spark Cyto uses a patent-pending LED-based autofocus system to deliver accurate images without compromising on scanning time
- The Live Viewer software application enables the Spark Cyto to be used as an image cytometer, allowing cells to be monitored in real time.
- Spark Cyto allows you to image a whole-well in a 96- or 384-well plate with one single picture, giving you insight into every cell in every well
Five predefined applications, even more possibilities: Confluence -nucleic counting -transfection efficiency-cell viability-cell death
