Key Features

Usable in CO2 incubator

Since CytoWatcher body is moisture-proof, it can take time-lapsed images of live cells with cultured in a high humidity CO2 incubator. There is no need to use an expensive microscope stage culture system.

Compact microscope

Compact Design: CytoWatcher is small and lightweight, making it suitable for use in limited spaces such as laboratory benches or safety cabinets.
Portability: Easy to carry, allowing you to transport it to your workspace and use it wherever needed.

Just connect to PC with USB

Simple Connection: CytoWatcher connects to a Windows PC using a USB 3.0 cable (optional), with power supplied directly from the PC via USB.
Immediate Image Viewing: By launching the control software ImageSaverT (included as standard), users can instantly view live cell images.
Easy Image Management: The software allows for easy saving of images and capturing of time-lapse sequences.

Multiple units can be controlled by one PC

Multiple Connection Capability: Users can connect multiple CytoWatchers to a single PC, allowing for simultaneous time-lapse imaging of multiple samples in parallel.
Up to 2 Units: The system supports connection of up to 2 CytoWatcher units to the PC for increased imaging capacity.

Fluorescent imaging

Fluorescent Imaging Capability: The fluorescent imaging model features a blue LED light source and excitation/emission filters, supporting green emitted fluorescent imaging such as GFP.
Versatile Setup: It can be conveniently set up in a CO2 incubator.
Combined Imaging: Capable of combining bright field and fluorescent time-lapse imaging for comprehensive observation.

How to use WSL-1850 CytoWatcher

CytoWatcherⅡ/CytoWatcherⅡ FL is a digital microscope that allows for the long-term imaging of live cells and tissues without causing damage. Designed to be space-efficient and energy-saving, it fits compactly inside a CO2 incubator, minimizing the impact on environmental temperature. It supports not only bright-field imaging but also fluorescence imaging, and its outstanding color reproduction is suitable for observing tissue sections and living tissues.
