NightOWL LB 983 is a state-of-the-art molecular imaging system for in vivo gene expression with luciferases and fluorescent proteins as well as for the localization with fluorescent-labelled antibodies.
Sensitivity, versatility and ease-of-use in combination make the NightOWL a superior instrument.
- deep-cooled CCD camera
- moving camera for flexible field of view
- signal intensity is height-corrected
- multiple accessories for different specimens
- software controlled interfaces and power sockets
- ports for outside access
The NightOWL allows visualization of animals and plants, blots, gels, microplates, cell culture dishes and microchips, regardless of the luminescent or fluorescent markers in use.
The visualization conditions of live organisms are very different–anesthesia for small animals, light-, temperature- and humidity control for plants and cell cultures. It allows for visualization of infectious and parasitic diseases development or bacterial growth monitoring and measurement of very faint luminescence in dermatology.
