This instrument can perform all of these assays, rather than just one. The Cytation 7 combines automated digital upright and inverted widefield microscopy with conventional multi-mode microplate reading in a unique, patented design. The inverted microscopy module provides sample visualization from 1.25x to 60x magnification in fluorescence, brightfield and color brightfield for a broad range of applications. The upright microscopy module with reflected light imaging enables even more applications such as ELISpot or fast slide scanning and ROI detection workflow. Cytation 7 includes continually variable bandpass monochromators for versatility and performance for general multi-mode plate reader applications. Temperature control to 45 °C, gas control and shaking expand the applications for kinetic cell-based assays. Cytation 7 is controlled by Gen5 software, which combines ease-of-use with powerful processing and analysis capabilities.  Due to the above stated reasons, RML requires the purchase of the Bio-Tek Instrument brand of product.Delivery Location: NIH-VRC, 40 Convent Drive, Bethesda, MD  20892, United States.
