Low Light Live Cell Microscopy

Andor Technology have introduced their latest addition to the iXon imaging CCD range with the iXon DV885 for live cell imaging with 8 x 8µm pixels for sharp intracellular resolution. The instrument provides a 1K x 1K sensor format for a large field of view and offers 10MHz and 35MHz pixel readout options enabling >30 full frames/sec for imaging rapid live cell dynamics. Faster frame rates are also possible with sub-array/binning. It offers high quantum efficiency response over a broad wavelength range with 'Virtual Phase' technology, making it suited to a wide range of fluorophores.
