Cell Observer:

The Complete System for live Cell Imaging

  DNA_Synthesizer
 

The «Cell Observer» is a complete system for observing and digitally documenting living cells and/or tissue (Time-Lapse Live Cell Imaging). The system can be used to observe dynamic processes under physiological conditions (temperature, CO2) on a microscope. Images of the cells and/or tissue are acquired at time intervals. The system can acquire two-dimensional images or 3D image stacks in various fluorescence wavelengths (multichannel).

The system can be used, for example, to digitally document the movement of structures in cells, cell division etc. in fluorescence and transmitted light.
