Application
1、Organoid Study
Organoid Imaging with 100+ Focal Planes
Track organoid growth, morphological changes, and differentiation with excellent registration captured at multiple focal planes
Tracking a Stem Cell –based Differentiating Organoid
The Thrive instrument was superior to alternatives at a major research institution in order to track organoid growth, morphological changes, and differentiation with excellent registration at multiple focal planes.
2、Drug Screening Study
Measure Confluence Over Time to Measure Cell Health & Plate Consistency
Optimized confluence measurements for both colonies and non-colonizing cells
3、Wound Healing Research
Capture high-resolution, time-series images to screen dozens drugs quantitatively for measure wound healing.
4、Counting Two Cell Types in Co-Culture over Time
A major research institution for the first time could capture high-resolution, time-series images and use Thrive’s image processing capabilities to count two cell types based on differing morphology.
5、Tracking a Single Cell into a Colony
Capture high-resolution, time-series images to track single cell growth for label-free characterization of cell behavior.
6、Track and Characterize Spheroids
Monitor and track spheroid count, area, and morphology, for bodies up to 3.5 mm in size more accurately than other instruments.
iPSC Spheroids
7、Acquire Sharp and Complete Images of Suspension Cells
Acquire sharp images of all suspension cells in wells with fast imaging and up to 100 focal planes. Produced for a researcher for the first time sharp images of all the cells in all the wells.
8、Viral Plaque Detection without Staining
For the first time, researchers can characterize the formation of viral plaques and precisely follow their progression over time, and without using staining.
