Agilent BioTek Cytation 5

Automated multimode imaging and live-cell analysis.

Personalise
Single-lineage-cell-differentiation

Description

The Agilent BioTek Cytation 5 combines automated digital microscopy with multimode microplate detection for quantitative imaging and plate-based analysis. Integrated temperature, CO2 and O2 control supports live-cell and longitudinal imaging under controlled culture conditions. The system supports advanced cell culture applications and integration with the 3DCF Automation Suite.
