Utilize stage tracking intelligence to locate and monitor specific cells undergoing paclitaxel-induced cytotoxicity using a manual microscope

22 Jul 2025

Returning to previously viewed locations in microplate wells, slides or petri dishes on a manual microscope, whether within the same session or across multiple days, can be challenging and often disrupts workflows.

Explore a stage tracking software that enables you to map your location as you manually move the stage and search for your cells. This application note demonstrates how to accurately track and revisit areas of interest to observe the effects of paclitaxel-induced cytotoxicity on U2OS cells over a 12-hour period using the manual Invitrogen™ EVOS™ M5000 Imaging System with Stage View.
