The LS850 in your incubator allows you to have a live cell imaging system that offers minimum photo toxicity and the most stable environment for long term imaging. Whether imaging multiple fields in your flasks or 1536 wells of cells with 3 fluorophores in a multi-day time-lapse, the LS850 offers a whole new world of walk-away automated microscopy!
Features and Benefits
Images, tiled images, Z-stacks, time-lapse series, and videos recorded directly to your computer
Bright field and phase contrast transmitted illumination
LED excitation and high performance optics provide diffraction-limited (theoretical maximum) resolution
Multi-OS software allows set-up and control across any locations, including microplates, microfluidic chips, slides, dishes, flasks, and deck-top chambers and custom arrays
High speed stage with single digit micron precision and accuracy
Long range motorized Z for autofocus and Z-stacks down to 100 nm
Compact and robust design enables use inside cell culture hoods, incubators, hypoxic chambers, and gloveboxes
Detects blue, green and red fluorophores, including common probes such as Hoechst, DAPI, FITC, Fluo-4, GFP, Texas Red & mCherry GFP
Open source Python control code available
Objective compatibility with standard lenses and available with optional automated 4-objective turret
Like all of microscopes, the LS850 utilizes a Semrock Brightline® Pinkel filter set optimized for 405 nm, 488 nm, and 590 nm LED light sources. The 5-filter set is comprised of 3 excitation filters, 1 triple-band dichroic, and 1 triple-band emission filter. The LS850 use a 12 bit monochrome CMOS sensor.
