BioTek Cytation C10 Confocal Imaging Reader
BioTek Cytation C10 Confocal Imaging Reader
The Cytation C10 confocal imaging reader combines automated confocal and widefield microscopy with conventional multimode microplate reading in a unique, proprietary design. The automated water-immersion objectives capture more light, driving lower exposure times and reducing phototoxic impacts on live cells. The spinning-disk confocal module and accompanying disk pinhole options allow a researcher to look deeper into thick sample biology with improved clarity and detail. High-quality components used in the system, including a Hamamatsu scientific CMOS (sCMOS) camera, Olympus objectives and laser-based illumination enable excellent image quality.
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 brings high-performance, affordable confocal to every laboratory.

特性
- 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
- Water-immersion objectives to capture more light with lower exposure times
- 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
- Spinning disk confocal and widefield imaging, upgradable to add multimode detection, increases productivity with the ability to be ready for any application
