Description
For researchers with limited focus on, or just starting in vivo pre-clinical studies, the UVP iBox Studio provides highly sensitive fluorescence in vivo imaging at an affordable price. From in depth in vivo studies to quick screening, researchers can use this compact yet powerful imaging system to perform their choice of in vivo application. Camera and light source options provide maximum flexibility in system configuration.
Versatility of a wide spectrum: The UVP iBox Studio is versatile and can support imaging of any probe in the visible to near infrared (NIR) range (400 to 900nm). NIR imaging minimizes skin autofluorescence (~650nm) and allows 3x to 8x deeper penetration. The wide spectrum also offers more options for multiplex labeling. This capability enables visualization of tissue/tissue interaction, enhanced signal to background ratio, and detection of multiple fluorescent proteins or labels.
High performance cameras and software: Optimize your application by choosing between two high performance cooled camera options with either the highest resolution 8.1 megapixel camera or the exceptionally sensitive 6 megapixel camera for NIR imaging. Each camera is configured with the UVP iBox Studio to enable rapid in vivo imaging and repeat observation with minimal disturbance to the subject. The included VisionWorks Software tools provide users with the freedom to apply image enhancement and analysis features when needed. They create uncompromised raw data and preserve this true data, promising the highest quantitative value. The enhancement and analysis features offered include many powerful tools, such as: colony counting, area density, noise reduction, background subtraction, inversion, pseudocolor, compositing, and more.
