Description
The UltraMicroscope Choros™ is the light sheet microscope designed for users who want to push the boundaries of 3D imaging of large samples. With a dedicated standalone stage, the UltraMicroscope Choros offers unprecedented imaging volume while still offering the same outstanding benefits the Ultramicroscope platforms are known for. This system allows for effortless imaging of whole cleared mice and entire human organs or biopsy tissues at cellular resolution, without the need to section or trim precious samples to fit into the imaging cuvette.Combined with the revolutionary Lightspeed mode and the image processing software for 3D large volumes, MACS iQ View, it sets new benchmarks for speed and image quality.
Features:
-
Highly automated - Autofocus, automatic chromatic correction in both excitation and detection, as well as a batch measurement mode for imaging multiple samples are included.
-
Large Imaging Volume - With its extended stage travel range and dedicated large imaging cuvette, the UltraMicroscope Choros offers the widest imaging range available on the UltraMicroscope platform.
-
Fast - The LightSpeed mode in the UltraMicroscope Choros offers high-resolution imaging at an unparalleled speed, up to 60 times faster than its predecessor and other systems. This remarkable speed is evident in its capability to capture a full 3D image of an entire mouse brain in less than 3 minutes, a process that would take several hours with other light sheet microscopes. The LightSpeed mode is not only fast but it also provides the best possible image quality and resolution.
-
Easy to use - With the UltraMicroscope Choros, anyone can become a light sheet microscopist. There is no need for technical expert knowledge.
-
Flexible - Handling all clearing media, from water to organic solvents thanks to the dedicated objective dipping caps.
-
Cutting-edge light sheet optics - Up to six light sheets, optimized for uniform illumination, improved optical sectioning, and high image quality, are combined with dedicated high numerical aperture (NA) and long working distance immersion objectives, ensuring the most homogeneous imaging conditions.
-
Image processing software - Achieve superior image quality through the user-friendly post-processing workflow of "MACS® iQ View – 3D Large Volume," which includes 3D cropping, destriping, denoising, deconvolution, stitching, and contrast compression. Specifically designed for the UltraMicroscope platform, this software eliminates the necessity for data conversion. Utilize the convenience of batch processing to load, queue, and process multiple datasets in a single run.
-
Complete workflow - Miltenyi Biotec has got you covered from A to Z, with validated 3D-IF antibodies for staining large samples, the MACS® Clearing Kits for tissue clearing, easy-to-follow immunostaining and tissue clearing protocols, and smart software solutions, from data acquisition to image processing.
