High flexibility and throughput for live cell imaging with the new Zeiss Celldiscoverer 7

ZEISS introduces a new system for automated microscopy in life sciences research. ZEISS Celldiscoverer 7 combines the user-friendly automation features of a boxed microscope with the image quality and flexibility of a classic inverted research microscope. Scientists acquire better data in shorter times with 2D or 3D cell cultures, tissue sections or small model organisms.
