UVP iBox in vivo BioImaging Systems

Analytik Jena

Easily in vivo small animal imaging system enables research studies in whole animal down to individual cells

Systems enables non-invasive detection of fluorescent and bioluminescent reporters in small animals. Analytik Jena US offers three instrument series:

1. UVP iBox Studio

Affordable small animal imaging
Integrated 13.3” touch screen computer
Non-invasive detection of fluorescent reporters in up to 3 mice
High resolution, high sensitivity, deeply cooled CCD cameras (up to -60°C from ambient)
- iBox Studio 815: 8MPx camera, good sensitivity in the whole spectrum
- iBox Studio 695: 6MPx camera, highly effective in NIR
Wide aperture (f/0.95) lens optics capture more light in low-light applications
Overhead white, green, red and blue LEDs come as standard in the series
Optional NIR and eLITE multispectral light source
5-Position automated filter wheel (GFP and RFP emission filters included)
Small footprint to maximize the use of laboratory bench space
Light tight darkroom creates optimum imaging conditions
Warming plate
Roll-out tray provides easy access for placement of mice on the warming plate
Optional anesthesia system
VisionWorks Software, with comprehensive features, optimizes image acquisition and analysis
