WPA CO8000 Cell Density Meter by Biochrom

Features

• Single beam LED cell density meter measures OD at 600nm
• Small, portable with rechargeable battery
• Long lifetime LED source with little maintainance needed
• Easy to use, clean and sterilise
• Stores up to 99 results to download later

Description

The Biochrom WPA CO8000 is a robust, easy to use instrument dedicated to the measuring of the density of cells in suspension such as E.coli, yeast, cells and other cell cultures. This hand held instrument has an integral battery allowing it to be taken to where the cell cultures are growing e.g. in incubation cabinets, under anaerobic conditions or even in a fume hood or safety cabinets.

This robust instrument will accept a variety of cuvettes and tubes- including 10, 12, and 16mm diameter test tubes meaning it can be used with Erlenmeyer side arm flasks. With no warm up time, just switch it on and it’s ready to use giving you results that are comparable to larger, more expensive spectrophotometers. The cell density of the cultures can be measured and the results stored in the memory. The results are given in Absorbance Units (OD). Once all measurements are taken, the up to 99 sample results can be viewed on the easy to read screen or the instrument can be connected to a PC or printer and the results downloaded.

This low maintenance instrument uses an indefinite life LED with fibre optics and no filters. The rechargable battery automatically recharges when connected to the mains and allows up to 1 month’s normal use (under normal conditions) on a single charge. It is easily cleaned with ethanol or sterilized with formaldehyde or ethylene oxide.

It is important to note that cell cultures are turbid samples , so the Absorbance (OD) measured is due to light scattering, and not due to molecular absorption. Clumping together of cells will also affect readings, so the medium they are suspended in will also make a difference. This means that the actual reading obtained is very dependent on the collecting area of the detector after the sample and the optical geometry of the system. These vary depending on the make and model of instrument, so differences in readings between types of instruments are to be expected.

To use this instrument with cells other than yeast or E.coli known concentrations / cell counts (with replicates to gauge error limits) should be plotted against measured OD600 to construct a calibration curve.

An automated cell counter has never been this easy or affordable.

• Fully automated cell counting and cell viability analysis.
• Autofocus technology for fast and reliable cell counting.
• Trypan blue stained cell counting or non-stained cell counting methods.
• Various histograms and cell-size gating.
• Unmatched counting accuracy and speed.
• Built-in computer and printer.
• The most affordable running cost currently on the market. Don’t spend more money and waste time on slides that require you to peel off a protective film! 

The Luna-II automated cell counter is the most advanced cell counter with unmatched speed, accuracy, and consistency of measurement. It is a stand-alone instrument integrating precision microscopy optics, an onboard PC, image analysis software, automatic focusing, and an optional built-in printer.

The Luna-II accurately detects total/live/dead cells at concentrations ranging from 5×10-4 cells/ml to 1×10-7 cells/ml and cell sizes between 3um and 60um.

NEW AUTOFOCUSING TECHNOLOGY

The LUNA-II™ automated cell counter has integrated a novel focusing mechanism based on liquid lens technology.
The liquid lens does not use any mechanical moving parts to change the Z stage. Instead, the Z position of the sample is rapidly
obtained by the application of a small voltage to the liquid lens. The elimination of moving parts removes noise and significantly
reduces the need for servicing. Even after multi-million cycles of focusing, the liquid lens does not require repair or service.
In combination with this novel focusing mechanism, the LUNA-II™ has integrated a new autofocusing algorithm optimized for
cell counting.

Cell Counting Accuracy: Declustering

The LUNA-II™ automated cell counting algorithm has been recognized to have the best-in-class cell counting accuracy. The LUNA™ software has exceptional accuracy in cell de-clustering and can successfully count clumpy cells. The LUNA-II™ automated cell counter has inherited this well-known performance aspect of the LUNA™ software. Clumpy cells are de-clustered quickly and automatically, then counted as individual cells.

Reduced Running Cost

Automated cell counters utilize disposable counting slides to eliminate washing steps of manual cell counting with the glass hemocytometer. Although disposable cell counting slides have several advantages, the increased running cost has been a substantial concern. Logos Biosystems developed a patented T-BOND technology to manufacture precision cell counting slides more efficiently. Therefore, the unit price of counting slides became much more affordable, providing significant cost savings.

Built-in Thermal Printer (optional)

A thermal printer is integrated in the LUNA-II™ automated cell counter, and the counting results can be printed immediately for record keeping purposes. Because the printer is already integrated in the LUNA-II™ automated cell counter, an additional cable connection is not required.

Interactive Software Interface

Options for  staining methods

The LUNA-II™ automated cell counter can count samples with or without trypan blue dye. The selection of trypan blue presence
or absence can easily be chosen in the settings menu.

Cell size histogram and cell size based gating

After counting, cells can be gated based on their size information provided by the LUNA-II™. The specific size of cell populations
Can easily be included or excluded on histograms.

Cell cluster map

Counted cells can be sorted with cell cluster map, into single cells, doublets, or triplets. The cell cluster map can be used to monitor changes in culture conditions or cell isolation/preparation protocols.

Review and Re-analysis option

The LUNA-II™ automated cell counter provides a powerful review option. A separate PC unnecessary. Users can open cell images directly on the LUNA-II™ automated cell counter to check previous results.

Various file save options

The LUNA-II™ can store up to 1,000 counts onboard. After counting, the result is automatically saved in the memory, and previous count results can be exported via USB as a .CSV file for further analysis. The results and image data can be saved in three different file formats such as TIF, annotated TIF, or a PDF report file. The PDF report file contains all the data generated during/after the cell counting, i.e., the protocol used, cell counting results, date, raw/analyzed cell image(s), and histograms are included in the PDF report file.

X-CLARITY II Tissue Clearing System

Features

Easy installation, Ultrafast clearing, Reliable results

The new X-CLARITY II Tissue Clearing System from the imaging specialists at Logos Biosystems provides an all-in-one solution for electrophoretic tissue clearing. The groundbreaking CLARITY™ method developed by the Deisseroth Lab at Stanford University (Chung et al, Nature 497:332-337) provides unparalleled tissue samples for imaging. Combining an innovative electrode design and an integrated cooling system, the X-CLARITY™ Tissue Clearing System allows for faster and more consistent tissue clearing.

Many researchers currently attempting the CLARITY™ method often encounter difficulties that range from instrument construction to poor clarifying, resulting in the loss of valuable samples. Days or even weeks spent processing a precious sample can end in frustration and disappointment.

The X-CLARITY™ Tissue Clearing System greatly simplifies the CLARITY™ process, can clarify a whole adult mouse brain in under  48 hours, and dramatically increases your chances of obtaining transparent tissue samples for use in downstream labeling.

HOW IT WORKS ?

Typical negative effects related with conventional electrophoretic tissue clearing methods include burning, melting, the formation of black precipitates, and bubble trapping. The main causes of these artifacts are due to irregular electric currents and poor temperature control during electrophoresis. The X-CLARITY™ dramatically reduces the negative effects associated with standard electrophoretic  tissue clearing with a unique electrode design and an active cooling system. The X-CLARITY™ Tissue Clearing System is composed of  four components: 1) the X-CLARITY™ ETC Controller, 2) X-CLARITY™ ETC Chamber 3) X-CLARITY™ pump and 4) X-CLARITY™ buffer reservoir.  The X-CLARITY™ ETC Controller works as both a power supply and temperature controller. At the heart of the X-CLARITY™ Tissue Clearing System is the X-CLARITY™ ETC Chamber. A tissue sample is placed inside the X-CLARITY™ ETC Chamber where it undergoes electrophoresis  to remove lipids. Clearing buffer is continually circulated through the chamber under temperature controlled conditions, minimizing the probability of artifacts arising due to poor temperature control.

Highlights

• Exceptional transparency
• Fastest processing time
• Easy installation and operation
• Minimized artifacts
• No leaking, no boiling
• Pre-optimized protocol

ACCELERATE YOUR RESEARCH WITH THE X-CLARITY™ TISSUE CLEARING SYSTEM

Compared to other methods, the X-CLARITY™ Tissue Clearing System dramatically reduces tissue clearing time. A whole adult mouse brain can be cleared in under 48 hours. Depending on the thickness, mouse brain slices may be cleared much faster. Additionally, the speed of  the X-CLARITY™ Tissue Clearing System makes optimizing for other organs and tissues a much easier endeavor.

One of the most exciting features of the CLARITY™ technology is that, it allows for the penetration of and labeling with macromolecules  such as antibodies or oligonucleotides, generating unprecedented 3D images that show the relationship between structure and function.  Chemical tissue clearing technologies introduced in recent years generally do not accommodate labeling with macromolecules. CLARITY™ overcomes this limitation and even enables multiple rounds of antibody labeling. The X-CLARITY™ Tissue Clearing System also successfully produces samples that demonstrate the efficient penetration of antibodies.

WHAT IS CLARITY™ ?

CLARITY™ is a novel technology that produces a transparent tissues by forming a hydrogel network that supports the ultrastructure while allowing for the removal of lipids. Unlike other tissue clearing methods, the CLARITY™ uniquely enables the efficient labeling  of tissues with macromolecules such as antibodies and nucleic acids, making high resolution imaging possible. CLARITY™ is expected  to overcome the current limitation of light microscopy technology, which does not allow the imaging of tissues without first creating  slices. CLARITY™ is the trademark of Stanford University.

Different reagent tube holders are available to ensure secure handling of valuable reagents. The system has a flat surface on top, providing enough space for a laptop.

Powerful crosstalk control – reliable results

Do you often see a few high-intensity samples surrounded by wells of low-intensity when running your samples?  Then you are potentially affected by a phenomenon called crosstalk, this can produce wrong results and wrong conclusions. The crosstalk reduction design of the Tristar 3 almost eliminates this problem: with a crosstalk of 10^-6, you will never have to worry about the position of your high-intensity samples in your plate.

JET injectors: highest accuracy, speed and cell-friendliness

The Tristar 3 can be equipped with up to 3 JET injectors with variable volumes in pre-measurement or measurement position. The ultra-fast injection speed of JET injectors eliminates any delay between injection and measurement. This enables the Tristar 3 to measure ultra fast reactions, e.g. flash luminescence.

Berthold Technologies JET injectors use Teflon bellows for accurate and fast injections. This guarantees the most efficient mixing as well as extreme longevity.

• Highest accuracy and reproducibility with greater than 98 % accuracy and reproducibility over the entire volume range.
• Low reagent consumption due to the low dead volume and the injectors can recover up to 60 % of the reagent in the injector line. A single priming sequence is enough to achieve a 99 % homogeneous mix at the tip.
• Low maintenance costs – friction-free operation enables more than 3 million injections without mechanical failure.
• Optimal performance in flash-kinetics – ultra-fast injection enables the measurement of the first 150 ms of a kinetic assay (e.g. Fura-2 or Acridinium ester assays).

Thanks to a stringent selection of photomultipliers working in photon counting mode and more than 40 years of experience building luminometers, the Centro provides highly sensitive luminescence detection: less than 5 amol ATP/well (25 fM) can be detected reliably. In the Centro XS, optics have been optimized to increase its sensitivity even further: below 1.8 amol ATP/well (9 fM).

Powerful crosstalk control – reliable results

Do you often see a few high-intensity samples surrounded by wells of low-intensity when running your samples?  Then you´re potentially affected by a phenomenon called crosstalk, that can produce wrong results and, hence, wrong conclusions. The crosstalk reduction design of the Centro does almost eliminate this problem: with a crosstalk of 10^-6, you never have to worry about the position of your high-intensity samples in your plate.

Integrated waste pump

Thanks to its built-in waste pump, you don’t need to worry about loading microplates, waste containers or removal of injector tips for washing and filling the reagent lines; the built-in waste pump takes care of the safe removal of excess liquids.

JET injectors: highest accuracy, speed and cell-friendliness

The Centro can be equipped with up to 3 JET injectors with variable volumes in pre-measurement or measurement position*. The ultra-fast injection speed of JET injectors eliminates any delay between injection and measurement and enables measurement of fast reactions, e.g. flash luminescence.

Berthold Technologies’ JET injectors use Teflon bellows for accurate and fast injections and guarantee most efficient mixing as well as extreme longevity.

• Accurate pipetting of small volumina: JET injectors ensure the injection of large and small volumes with high accuracy and offer a precision of more than 98% over the entire volume range
• Low maintenance costs: frictionless operation for extended lifetime
• Cell-friendly performance: cell-friendly materials and negligible shear forces enable worry-free injection of cell suspensions, e.g. in Aequorin-based calcium assays

* All injectors in pre-measurement position in the Centro XS.

Luminescence detection at its best

Thanks to a stringent selection of photomultipliers working in photon counting mode and more than 40 years of experience building luminometers, the new Lumat offers excellent luminescence sensitivity: <1 zmol firefly luciferase and <1 amol ATP/tube (high sensitivity model) can be reliably detected.

JET injectors – highest accuracy, speed and cell-friendliness

The Lumat can be equipped with up to 2 JET injectors with variable volumes. The ultra-fast injection speed of JET-injectors eliminates any delay between injection and measurement and is critical to measure fast reactions, e.g. for flash luminescence measurements.

Berthold Technologies’ JET injectors use Teflon bellows for accurate and fast injections and guarantee most efficient mixing as well as extreme longevity.

• Accurate pipetting of small volumina: regardless of whether you want to inject large or small volumes, JET injectors ensure high accuracy and more than 98% accuracy over the entire volume range
• Low maintenance costs: frictionless operation for extended lifetime
• Cell-friendly performance: cell-friendly materials and negligible shear forces enable worry-free injection of cell suspensions, e.g. in Aequorin-based calcium assays

Convenient sample switching mechanism

The measurement of individual samples one after the other can be time-consuming. The Lumat has a turret mechanism that makes this job easier and increases your throughput. Thanks to its motor-driven revolving magazine mechanism based on a rotating chamber for two tubes (one for measuring and one for loading and unloading), so you can prepare and insert the next sample while the previous one is still measuring.

MAXIMUM SPEED AND RELIABILITY

The Zoom HT microplate washer is a robust and easy-to-use system that delivers the speed you need for high throughput plate washing. The unmatched speed of the system is the result of the integrated stackers and a one-rail design. This plate washer can process both 96 and 384 well microplates without changing the wash head.

The fastest plate washer on the market today

It takes only 17 seconds for a triple wash of a 96 well microplate. Combined with the unique one-rail plate transfer design which moves the plate a very short distance from the stack to the wash position. This enables a typical throughput of 150 washed plates per hour, or up to 1050 plates per day (3 x 300 µL, 7 h per day, 1 single  Zoom HT).

A single wash head for all plate types

Each wash channel has its own aspirate and dispense tip, which allows simultaneous washing of all 96 wells. The same 96 channel wash head is used for 384 well washing in four quadrants, making it unnecessary to purchase different wash heads for different plate types.  Rapid positioning of the wash head provides 384 well wash speeds comparable to 384 well channel washers. Large diameter aspirate tips, 3-dimensional (3D) tip positioning and a constant flow rate vacuum pump ensure a smooth and efficient washing experience.

Individual configuration of the washing protocol 

Two wash modes are available: Regular wash mode and Superwash mode (also known as “Overflow mode”). When using the regular wash mode, the wash fluid that is dispensing and evacuated follow each other. When using the Superwash mode, the wash fluid that is dispensing and evacuated are conducted simultaneously creating a continuous wash fluid flow throughout the entire well.  The Zoom HT supports creating and storing of the 3D tip positioning profile for each plate type and assay. This profile defines the aspirate tip horizontal and vertical positions thereby mapping how the well is aspirated. In addition, the speed with which the tip is immersed into the well is adjustable. Fine-tuning of all the parameters of the wash procedure will allow to wash even loosely adherent cultured cells. The Zoom HT will have residual wash fluid volumes of less than 1 μL/well, this can be achieved when a surfactant is present in the wash fluid.

A unique self-emptying liquid discharge system

The discarded wash fluids are captured by a self-emptying waste trap, which allows uninterrupted processing of large plate batches. Biohazard waste management is supported by the automatic addition of a decontamination solution which is continuously drained from the trap.

Automatic switch of buffer liquids

The Zoom HT is available in 3 different configurations using a one, two or four wash buffer inlet. This is advantageous for applications that require sequential cleaning with different buffers or for an automatic cleaning routine after using the system.

Easy maintenance

The unique design of the dispense manifold eliminates the need for any special cleaning. The aspirate head is maintenance free because of the large aspirate tip diameter. This is  combined with a continuous vacuum that reliably prevents any accumulation of reagent residue.

Optional Dispense Module

The optional Dispense Module is an easy-to-install plug-and-play device, is extremely easy to use and requires no calibration. With the addition of a dispense module the Zoom HT Washer becomes an efficient washer-dispenser combination system. The Dispensing Module provides single or dual-channel dispensing of reagents using direct drive and positive displacement syringes to ensure the highest precision and accuracy when dispensing. The dispense module feeds one or two 8- or 16-way manifolds for 96 and/or 384 well microplates
