Oosight® Benefits & Features
Oosight Imaging System is for research purposes only.
Oosight software visualization tools include (left to right): slow-axis orientation color map, orientation vector overlay, retardance color map, automated SpindleFinder™, and automated ZonaFinder™.
Key Benefits
- Unprecedented Resolution
High-contrast live images of the oocyte and spindle - Non-invasive Imaging
Does not require the use of any labels or stains, preserving the biology of the spindle and related structures - Quantitative Analysis
Tracks oocyte behaviour over time and automatically records data points of molecular density and orientation - Proven
Successfully used to image many different mammalian species for both enucleation and developmental studies
Features
- Quantitative measurements of molecular order and alignment of birefringent structures, including the spindle, zona pellucida, oolemma, sperm head and tail.
- Calibrated and reproducible data.
- New automated Spindle- and Zona-Finder™ tools.
- New laser targeting tool.
- Reporting capability.
- Seamless integration with most third-party laser systems.
- Foot-pedal controls for quick and easy imaging.
- Models to fit most inverted microscopes.
- High-resolution CCD camera for both retardance-based and general-purpose imaging.
- New smaller footprint for better integration into small work spaces.
