Contrast Enhancement for cells, 3D structures, tissue sections and small organisms
Presenters: Caleb Foster, Product Manager, Development and Peter Banks, Ph.D. Scientific Director, BioTek Instruments
Discovering innovative cancer therapies requires a deep understanding of the heterogeneous microenvironment of solid tumors.
A novel cellular analysis instrument comprised of a digital microscope and a PMT-based microplate reader will be described for the automated analysis of a wide range of cell models including:
- Plated cells
- Scaffold- and spheroid-based 3D cell structures
- Tissue sections
- Whole organisms
Data and image processing and analysis capabilities will be described for both target- and phenotypic-based assays in either kinetic or endpoint formats for these cell models.
