AB-3000B Cellgraph
Bioluminescnece imaging system for living cell and tissues
Cellgraph is an imaging system to detect low-level light emission in a single living cell by using a highly sensitive EM-CCD camera.
AB-3000B Cellgraph
Purpose and Application
- Real time reporter gene assay
- Transcriptional factor activity, Clock gene (chronopharmacology). Gene expression (Transfection,RNAi,etc)
- Analysis of cell responses
- Drug response(Anti-cancer drug,DDS,etc),Stress response (Hormone,Inflammation,Anti-Oxidant), Cytotoxichology
- Analysis of signal pathway
- Signal cascade (Calcium), Apoptosis,etc
Features
- Acquire images of culturing cells or tissue samples on a 35 mm dish in the living state.
- Provide a CO2 incubator equivalent atmosphere by controlling the temperature, CO2 gas concentration and humidifying.
- Highly sensitive and accurate detection of faint bioluminescence with an EM-CCD camera.
- Isolates and captures multicolor faint bioluminescence.
- Easy operation via a user-friendly interface.
- Full control from a PC with dedicated software.
- Completely lightproof,compact design.
