UVP is to showcase its Ibox Explorer fluorescence imaging microscope at the 2010 World Molecular Imaging Conference on 8-11 September in Kyoto, Japan.
The company will also highlight its line of Ibox in vivo imaging systems for rapid high-resolution analysis of fluorescently tagged cells, tissues, organs and whole animals in the visible and NIR wavelengths.
UVP now offers three systems for real-time fluorescence imaging to speed up basic and preclinical research studies in tumours, oncology, heart and metabolic diseases.
The Ibox Explorer has the ability to micro image cells and organs subcutaneously and within the body cavity of living mice.
The Ibox Explorer joins the whole-mouse imagers Ibox Scienta and Ibox Spectra.
Ibox Explorer operates through its software control using optical configurations that are parcentered and parfocal, allowing seamless imaging through the magnification ranges.
Included is a high-frame-rate cooled colour camera with technology that enables quick detection, image capture and high throughput.
Applications of the Ibox Explorer include imaging whole organs, tumour/host margins and interactions, tumour micro environment, vasculature, and micro metastases.
UVP's line of bio-imaging systems includes the Biospectrum multifunctional imaging system, which combines a high-resolution CCD camera and advanced features for enhanced imaging fluorescent and chemiluminescent imaging capabilities.
