Detecting a Mouse Pancreatic Cancer Cell Line Using the iBox® Explorer™ Imaging Microscope

7 May 2012

Read this application note to learn about a pilot study by UVP, LLC. A pancreatic tumor tissue sample was imaged at two magnifications and a red fluorescent protein (RFP) filter was used to highlight the RFP-tagged cytoplasm and observe the distinct morphologic characteristics of individual cells as well as the tissue microenvironment ex vivo. The iBox Explorer can aid in the visualization of many cellular processes through fluorescence technology in a wide range.

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.
