Integrated Imager

Hamilton Robotics introduces a Cell Imager for automated cell growth monitoring in the company’s Cellhost culture system. It accurately measures cell confluence and growth in 96-well plates and is ideal for measuring hybridoma clones in antibody screening for therapeutic and diagnostic research and development.

This dedicated imaging module optimizes the cell culture workflow and process by providing timely information with which to make decisions on media changes and subculture steps.

The compact device can be placed directly on the Microlab Star workstation deck, and imaging and pipetting are done in the same position for maximum space economy. The design eliminates the need for a gripper. The Cell Imager reads an entire 96-well plate in approximately five minutes. Two positions allow one plate to be imaged while another is processed.
