Cytovar™
Cell-based assay? Done.
Optically read out your cell-based assay in the full range of detail: from a plate reader to an imaging cytometer to a high content imager--all in one compact bench-top instrument. Real-time analysis enables the Cytovar to cherrypick wells that merit more detailed study, so you can focus your time and resources on the wells that matter. Multiple Cytovar instruments fit in racks and work seamlessly together for jaw-dropping throughput in turn-key instrument clusters.
Easy.
Beautiful, thoughtfully-designed software is backed by cutting-edge algorithms, unfussy autofocus, and an interactive, modern workflow. Real-time data analysis liberates you from the hassle of managing large offline datasets. You'll develop better assays and get more meaningful data with Cytovar because you can see the effect of changes in your settings in real time--both with the physical measurement and with the analysis. Considering how complex and frustrating other instruments can be, Cytovar's easy approach to assay development can enable you to do more good science with less effort.
Complete.
Cytovar is the only instrument that embodies a plate reader, an imaging cytometer, and a high-content imager--with competitive sensitivity, full-well cytometry, and sub-cellular and sub-nuclear imaging resolution. It boasts a sixteen-color solid-state illuminator. Its chassis takes just 18 inches of your bench-top. The system is automation-friendly, and it produces standard data files that work with your post-processing and database software. We have live-cell imaging and confocal imaging coming soon. Cytovar is a complete system that strives to simplify all cellular assays, now and in the future.
Scalable.
All of our options--like brightfield illumination, live-cell support, and confocal imaging--are field-upgradeable within the compact bench-top chassis. And that chassis was designed to slide into a bench-top rack of 3 instruments or a floor-standing rack of 6 instruments. Compact size, low power, and industrial reliability come together with great software to enable clusters from 2 to 72 instruments with turn-key ease. Exposure times limit the ultimate speed of low-light cellular measurements, but by combining Cytovar instruments in parallel, we enable you to scale your bench-top-proven assay to much higher throughput.
