"These innovations open new frontiers in cell biology research, enabling researchers to explore the intricacies of cellular structures and dynamics."

    Product Highlights:

    HT-X1 Holotomography Imaging System: The HT-X1 is a revolutionary low-coherence holotomography imaging system that enables researchers to visualize transparent specimens in three dimensions. By generating 3D refractive index (RI) tomograms, the HT-X1 represents valuable quantitative information about cells, including volume, area, protein and lipid concentration, and dry mass. This label-free approach provides a non-invasive means of investigating cellular structures and dynamics.

    The HT-X1 has outstanding performance in the key applications of quantitative phase imaging:

    • Confluent & sensitive live cells: primary cells including stem cells, iPSC, neuronal cells, etc.
    • Monitoring of multiple samples in a multi-well imaging plate up to 96 well with stable incubation system.
    • Observing thicker samples: organoid, tissue, microfluidic device.
    • Nanomaterial delivery: better resolution without speckle noise.

    TomoAnalysis Software: Discover TomoAnalysis, the ultimate software solution for refining, segmenting, quantifying, and analyzing for Holotomography. The highlighted functions of TomoAnalysis are lipid droplet quantification, cell instance segmentation, and fluorescence-based analysis. These functions use a refractive index (RI) based thresholding method to segment masks because Holotomography image represents RI distribution. The software automatically provides quantitative information of segmented features using the characteristics of RI which is linearly proportional to concentration of biomolecules. Users can use the fluorescence signal as supplementary data using corelative fluorescence imaging with Holotomography. The software offers core Analysis pipelines and provides a range of customizable features to address diverse user needs. Researchers can refine their image data, extract meaningful measurements, and conduct in-depth quantitative analyses.

  • The Tomocube HT-X1 Holotomography Imaging System is a cutting-edge digital holotomography (HT) imaging system that enables label-free three-dimensional (3D) visualization of transparent specimens. The HT-X1 generates 3D refractive index (RI) tomograms representing the distribution of the RIs of specimens, which can then be translated into morphological, chemical, and mechanical properties. 

    The HT-X1 incorporates the high resolution, high contrast, and high sensitivity capabilities of the HT series from Tomocube and adapts them into a programmable multi-well plate imaging system with laser autofocus at a larger field of view. The HT-X1 is the first-ever holotomography technique to use a low-coherent light source with multiple beam patterns to obtain quantitative 3D RI information, thereby minimizing interference noise and eliminating the need for a calibration step for image acquisition. The motorized stage allows for tiling and multi-point analysis within each well, in addition to moving between wells. A built-in stage-top incubation system completes the live-cell imaging setup. A 3D fluorescence imaging module is incorporated to expand the information about the specimens by adding molecular information.
