HoloMonitor
Live Cell Assays
HoloLids
The HoloMonitor time-lapse cytometer is based on the successor of the soon 100-year-old phase-contrast microscope — quantitative phase imaging. Equipped with a digital image sensor, low power diode illumination and sophisticated computer algorithms, HoloMonitor quantifies living cells by measuring how light changes direction when passing through unstained cells. The cells are completely unaffected, as no light energy whatsoever is absorbed or transferred to the cells — no energy exchange, no change.
This allows HoloMonitor to gently image, quantify and over time monitor a large number of cells individually in their incubator environment, without the bias introduced by the harshness and toxicity of flow cytometry and fluorescent microscopy.
