Description
This High-Content Screening (HCS) platform combines automated fluorescence microscopy (widefield and spinning-disk confocal) with transmitted-light imaging techniques, including brightfield and digital phase contrast, alongside advanced image and data analysis.
It enables the acquisition and processing of large volumes of cell-level data for biotechnology and pharmaceutical studies, improving the efficiency and accuracy of cellular assays and establishing GAIKER as a leading facility in this field.
Equipment
- High-throughput HCS system for widefield fluorescence and spinning-disk confocal microscopy
