2020年11月3日，荷蘭埃因霍溫 - CytoSMART Technologies今天宣布推出首款熒光活細胞成像儀。CytoSMART Lux3 FL是一款小型活細胞成像顯微鏡，配備一個明場和兩個熒光通道（綠色和紅色）。該設備使研究人員能夠實時解開細胞過程，同時將細胞保存在標準細胞培養箱內的受控環境中。CytoSMART的第一款熒光活細胞成像儀允許用戶通過拍攝高質量圖像來創建實時延時電影，從而以高特異性跟蹤動態細胞過程。

CytoSMART Technologies首席技術官Jan-Willem van Bree表示：“目前，熒光標記主要用作終點測量。然而，活細胞的延時成像可以提供更多關于生物過程的信息。通過以固定的時間間隔使用自動成像，熒光數據的時間分辨率得到提高，從而獲得有關細胞過程的更多相關數據。通過這種方式，研究人員不僅可以確定某個過程是否已經發生，還可以確定它何時發生以及以什么速度發生。我們的客戶一直要求我們開發一種小型且易于使用的顯微鏡，并集成了明場和熒光數據的圖像分析。我們傾聽并實現了它。

CytoSMART Lux3 FL的主要特性和優點包括：

• 集成明場和熒光區域或熒光對象計數的圖像分析。

• 延時電影，以研究細胞過程的發展。

• 研究人員可以使用綠色和紅色熒光在細胞培養物中分析更多變量。

• 通過 CytoSMART 云在實驗室外使用智能手機、平板電腦或筆記本電腦進行遠程數據訪問。

• 便攜式、易于使用且適合培養箱的活細胞成像儀。

CytoSMART announces the launch of its first fluorescence live-cell imager Lux3 FL

3 November 2020, Eindhoven, The Netherlands - CytoSMART Technologies today announced its first fluorescence live-cell imager. The CytoSMART Lux3 FL is a small live-cell imaging microscope equipped with one brightfield and two fluorescent channels (green and red). The device enables researchers to unravel cellular processes in real-time, while the cells are kept in a controlled environment inside a standard cell culture incubator. CytoSMART’s first fluorescence live-cell imager allows users to track dynamic cellular processes with high specificity by taking high-quality images to create real-time time-lapse movies.

Said Jan-Willem van Bree, CTO at CytoSMART Technologies, “Currently, fluorescent labeling is mostly used as an end-point measurement. However, time-lapse imaging of live cells can give much more information about biological processes. By using automated imaging at regular time intervals, the temporal resolution of the fluorescent data is increased, leading to even more relevant data about the cellular processes. In this way, researchers can not only determine if a certain process has occurred, but also when it occurred and at what speed. Our customers have been asking us to develop a small and easy-to-use microscope with integrated image analysis of bright-field and fluorescence data. We have listened and made it happen.”

The main features and benefits of the CytoSMART Lux3 FL include:

• Integrated image analysis of bright-field and fluorescence area or fluorescence object count.

• Time-lapse movies to investigate the development of cellular processes.

• Expanded number of variables researchers can analyze in their cell culture using green and red fluorescence.

• Remote data access via the CytoSMART Cloud with a smartphone, tablet, or laptop outside the lab.

• Portable, easy-to-use, and incubator friendly live-cell imager.
