Solentim Cell Metric cell imaging and analysis instrument is designed to provide a high-throughput workflow solution to screen for colonies from single-cell cloning experiments.
The instrument uses non-image based focusing to find and locate all possible
colonies by imaging the whole well. The platform provides accurate cell
measurements, without removing the cells from the culture plate and without
addition of stains and dyes. This ensures that cells are suitable for
downstream experiments. The system’s proprietary imaging technology
overcomes the problems of shadowing and edge effects associated with current
imagers. The instrument is programmed to provide real-time, user-defined
metrics on the cell number, confluence or density, colony count, and
variations in cell morphology, including viability and mitotic index. The
system can process samples in lidded 6-, 12-, 24-, 96-, or 384-well
microplates.
