BioStation IM System
The BioStation IM incorporates a motorized inverted microscope, an incubation chamber, and a cooled CCD camera into a single package. Being an all-in-one, complete solution from one vendor, IM overcomes stability and compatibility issues experienced in multi-vendor systems. Additionally, BioStation has a small footprint and is very easy to set up, requiring no alignment.

Applications: Cell Culture
BioStation IM Chamber
BioStation IM’s chamber can be easily detached and sterilized in an autoclave (a high-temperature, high-pressure steam sterilizer). The glass top cover maintains a sealed environment that prevents the loss of humidity and CO2 as well as contamination.

Applications: Cell Culture
BioStation IM Ergonomic Controller
An ergo controller that allows X, Y, and Z directional movement with an operational feel similar to a microscope comes standard. It also allows changeover of magnifications, fluorescence filters, imaging/ observation methods, and fluorescence shutter ON/OFF.

Applications: Cell Culture
BioStation IM Graphical User Interface
BioStation IM provides fully motorized control from a PC, allowing users who are not accustomed to operating a microscope or camera to easily conduct observations and imaging. The user has only to set the culture dish in place and begin image recording. Everything from cell management to time-lapse imaging is automatically managed and accomplished.
