PARIS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--BERTIN, entity of CNIM Group, is launching InCellis, a new cell imager developed to provide high quality images and facilitate the scientists’ day to day manipulation. The image quality in brightfield, phase contrast and fluorescence are generated by the latest state of the art technology of CMOS low light sensor, also used in military applications for targeting and surveillance. As with all of Bertin’s products, both the ergonomic and user experience have been taken into great consideration by the development team.
A smart cell imager solution
InCellis unique features
include a low light CMOS PHOTONIS colour camera, a large touchscreen
monitor, patented illumination technology and onboard automated cell
culture applications such as multi-channel cells imaging, transfection
efficiency “in the flask”(true colored tissue slide image), cell
proliferation study.
“When the first Imaging stations were launched, 8 years ago, it was a sheer breakthrough for biologists working on cell cultures” comments Bruno Vallayer, PhD, Managing Director of BERTIN Systems and Instrumentation. “With InCellis, we see a new generation of solutions going even further beyond: better-quality images, brand news apps… We listened closely to distributors’ and first-users’ feedbacks and we were committed to build on all these precious insights to develop and deliver the best cell imaging solution”.
Embedded automated cell culture applications
Among InCellis
many assets: its ability to facilitate communication between scientists.
All images can be processed either with the embedded apps or exported to
other software. In a minute, InCellis on-board applications enable users
to determine cell transfection efficiency, cell culture confluency or to
get multi-color fluorescence image on the bench. A scientist may take a
picture and share it instantly with colleagues even though they are not
present in the same lab room.
Innovative technology inspired by users needs
After
gathering users and partners inputs on existing cell imagers, InCellis
has been developed internally by BERTIN’s teams with obsession to offer
the best value possible for the right cost. This was possible thanks to
BERTIN’s expertise in optronics and lab equipment devices, combined with
a strong partnership with PHOTONIS, a leader in photo-sensors for
detection, imaging and amplification of low light.
