Product news

Axion Biosystems has announced the addition of the Omni Pro 12 to the Omni live-cell imaging product family. The new platform, which features integrated robotics and a multiplate design compatible with any standard incubator, offers enhanced flexibility and efficiency to scientists and drug developers conducting live-cell imaging experiments.

“The Omni Pro 12 is designed to provide an automated solution to accommodate multiple users and support live-cell imaging applications. The device is highly intuitive, offering unparalleled ease-of-use and accessibility, which makes it an indispensable tool for every life science laboratory,” said Kevin Gould, Axion BioSystems’ CEO. “From label-free, long-term cell monitoring to fluorescence-based assays, live-cell imaging can be an integral tool to advance immunology, oncology, and stem cell biology, facilitating the development of novel drugs and therapeutics.”

According to Jan-Willem Van Bree, Axion’s VP of Research & Development - Image Analysis Systems, the combination of a fully automated microplate storage and handling set-up with an Omni cell imager offers new possibilities for live-cell analysis. “The Omni Pro 12 increases the throughput without increasing the complexity of experimental set up or data analysis. The instrument is designed to operate inside a cell culture incubator, ensuring health and viability of even the most sensitive cell types, while integrated and user-friendly software enables the analysis of complex biological data in real time.”

Noninvasively studying the real-time biology of live cells allows scientists to understand the fundamental biological processes underpinning health and disease and accelerate the discovery and development of lifesaving therapeutics. The Omni Pro 12 uses high-capacity brightfield and fluorescence imaging to continuously assess cell behavior and function without sacrificing cell health and viability. AI-driven image analysis software minimizes subjectivity in the interpretation of data, allowing users to gain a quantitative, rather than qualitative, assessment. Combining knowledge from biology, engineering, optics, and computer science, the Omni Pro 12 is a must-have in any modern lab.

Cell / Tissue CultureCell culture or tissue culture is used to study the biology of cells or tissues and to isolate cellular products in an environment which can be manipulated and well defined. Accurately control your culture environment with bioreactors or culture incubators, bind your cells to a surface or together with an extracellular matrix. Distinguish cell types with differential media or proliferate cells with certain characteristics using selective media. Enrich your media with supplements such as growth factors, sera and vitamins. Find the best cell and tissue culture products, kits and equipment in our peer-reviewed product directory: compare products, check customer reviews and receive pricing direct from manufacturers.Cell Lines Stem Cells and Primary CellsPrimary cell cultures, established cell lines and stem cells are vital for <i>in vitro</i> and <i>ex vivo</i> experimentation. High-quality cells, optimized for your applications, alongside optimized cell substrates, growth medium and supplements, are critical for experimental success. Explore a range of cells suitable for your applications, including isogenic cell lines, competent cells, induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC)-derived cell lines, fungal/bacterial/mammalian cell lines, stem cells and cancer cell lines. Find the best cells for your research in our peer-reviewed product directory: compare products, check customer reviews and receive pricing direct from manufacturers.In Vivo Imaging Systems<i>In vivo</i> imaging systems, including pre-clinical imaging systems and medical imaging systems are used to non-invasively visualize and capture images of live animals and plants. Monitor the natural processes or diseases of your subjects using small-animal pre-clinical imaging systems, including single photon positron emission tomography (SPECT), positron emission tomography (PET), computed tomography (micro-CT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), X-ray radiography, ultrasound, fluorescence and bioluminescence imagers. Multimodal systems and software solutions are also available for correlative analysis of organ, tissue, cell, or molecular-level processes. Find the best in vivo imaging products in our peer-reviewed product directory: compare products, check customer reviews and receive pricing direct from manufacturers.Cell ImagingCell imaging can be achieved using a number of techniques including confocal microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, atomic force microscopy, and light sheet microscopy.Live Cell ImagingLive cell imaging is the study of living cells using microscopes and high-content imaging systems. This technique provides in-depth insight into fast and complex biological processes, by allowing dynamic imaging of living cells instead of acquiring an individual image at a single point in time.
