Manufacturer Overview
Built on 25 years of cellular imaging experience, the new ImageXpress® Micro XL system lets you image three times as fast, delivering more statistically robust results for larger data sets in a third of the time. With the most comprehensive set of image analysis and data visualization tools available, the standard ImageXpress Micro and ImageXpress Micro XL systems set the standard for imaging flexibility. Explore how you can increase your lab's high-content screening speed without compromising quality.

Options Included (provided by manufacturer publication)
Environmental Control Option Included• Enables multi-hour/multi-day live cell time-lapse imaging • User-defined premixed air allows researchers to select atmospheric conditions most appropriate for their cell type (e.g. 5% or 10% CO2) • Temperature control (30–40°C ± 0.5°C) of the sample plate maintains physiological environment • Humidity maintenance minimizes evaporation (0.5 μL/well/hour from 96- or 384-well formats) of media and extends measurement time • Field-upgradeable • Compatible with Fluidics or Transmitted Light Options
Transmitted Light Option Included • Phase optics generates high contrast images where unstained cells are easily viewed or separated from their background (4x–60x) • Brightfield setting compatible with all objective lenses offered • Ideal for non-fluorescent histochemically stained samples • Overlay with fluorescent images for fluorophore-independent visualization of cell morphology • Nikon 100W Pillar Diascopic Illuminator with TE-C ELWD Condenser • 0.3 NA with 65 mm WD and PhL, Ph1, and Ph2 selectable phase rings • Compatible with Environmental Control • Not compatible with Fluidics Option
Fluidics Option Included • Single-channel pipettor • Dispense volumes from 3 μL to 200 μL ±1 μL ±5% • Uses 96- or 384-well format FLIPR® tips • Compound addition • Media exchange • Holds two compound/media plates • Optional plate heating • Environmental Control comes standard with the Fluidics Option • Field-upgradeable
Condition
This imaging system and attached cables with the power supplies appear to be in good cosmetic and functional condition. Limited testing was performed and should be considered when purchasing this product.
Technical Evaluation
The technicians powered on the system and noted that individual components turn on. This product was not acquired with a PC and software, and could not be paired with another ImageXpress Micro system that is available in a separate ad. This system was upgraded to an XL model (date unknown) and includes the fluidics option as well as an environmental control option for controlling humidity, CO2 levels, and temperature. To fully test and use this instrument, a PC with this correct control and analysis software is required. The user may need to supply more than one card for the camera; there appears to be two camera options available. New Life Scientific is not responsible for providing the software, network accessories (dongle), cards, nor license(s); the user must adhere to any and all policies set by the manufacturer to maintain this instrument.
*The stage was secured for shipping purposes, to prevent excessive movement or damage, and the supports must be removed before operating the instrument.*
