The Cytation 5 imaging reader from BioTek includes added functionality to the automated digital microscopy and conventional multi-mode microplate detection modes.
The Cytation 5’s microscopy module provides cellular visualisation up to 60x magnification in fluorescence, brightfield, H&E and phase contrast modes, the company claims.
Equipped with BioTek’s Hybrid Technology, the multi-mode module includes variable bandwidth quad monochromators, high sensitivity filter-based detection and laser-based Alpha detection.
Cytation 5 also includes temperature control to 65 °C, CO2/O2 control, shaking and Gen5 software, specifically designed to simplify sample detection, image capture and analysis.
