Live-Cell Imaging Thrives With Microenvironment Control Systems

摘要

Choosing a microenvironmental control system for a microscope is not a trivial matter. The results of a live-cell imaging experiment should not be compromised by any part of the data acquisition process. Typically, live-cell experiments can be classified into two categories: developmental studies to establish natural behavior and induced change to study the effects of a controlled factor. Either way, advanced microenvironmental control systems are increasingly playing an important role in breakthroughs in cell biology, in vitro fertilization, tissue engineering, oncology research, neurology and other applications.
