Cytation 7 Cell Imaging Multimode Reader

Cytation 7 Cell Imaging Multimode Reader expertly combines automated digital upright and inverted widefield microscopy with conventional multimode microplate reading. At the heart of the Cytation 7 lies a continuously variable bandpass monochromator system that provides unmatched versatility and performance. This exceptional system is empowered by two modules – the inverted microscopy module that provides detailed sample visualization, and the upright microscopy module that expands capabilities with reflected light imaging, enabling many applications, including ELISpot and quick slide scanning. The Cytation 7 system is controlled by the Gen5 software that facilitates image processing and analysis work.
