Technology

Confocal detection

  • Optimize fluorescence detection
  • Assure good focalization all along the scan
  • Less background
  • SNR is increased by 2.5 times

Real-time autofocus

  • Detection idone through a spatial phinhole
  • Follows the slide movement and deformation in real time during the scan
  • Avoid all out-of-focus signal

Automatic barcode reader

  • Reliable and traceable results

All standard microscope slides format

  • Glass
  • Nitrocelluose coated glass
  • Plastic
  • Silicon wafer
  • Gold coated glass

Dynamic range

  • From > 104 to >106
  • Detect the lowest signals avoiding saturation.

Applications

Protein detection by fluorescence-labelled antibodies on tissue sections is a widely used technique for the biomarker screening in complex diseases such as cancer to define biomarker expression on tumor cells and its distribution on a defined tissue.
The biological importance of glycans in several cell functions range from cell-matrix interactions to organ structure support and from pathogen-host interaction to organism immune regulation.
Proteins are considered to be the key effectors of cellular response to external stimuli. Differential expression of key proteins can modulate cell fate, either cell differentiation, proliferation or death. Protein microarrays are a powerful tool for high-throughput screening
