Device to Hold and Image Cell Culture Flasks and Biodome Technologies
Labware receptacles, such as cell culture flasks or biodomes, are ubiquitous tools in cellular biology research which allow for growing as well as imaging cells. However, many labware receptacles face challenges when trying to image them, such as an inability to lay flat against the stage of a microscope, or to reproducibly place the receptacle in the...

Photoacoustic Microscopy Platform
Optical characterization of cells and tissues is necessary to understanding physiological mechanisms. However, current optical imaging techniques have limited imaging depth, often because of strong optical scattering. Photoacoustic imaging (PAI) is a powerful technique which combines the high contrast of optical imaging with the high spatial resolution...

Photoacoustic Cuvette Platform
Cuvettes, used to measure the absorbance of light in spectroscopy, are designed to hold a small volume of liquid sample and are optically transparent to allow light to pass through the sample. They are highly useful in spectrophotometry, fluorescence spectroscopy, UV spectroscopy and photoacoustic spectroscopy. While the optical characteristics of the...

Automated Micropipette Electrode Guidance System
Micropipettes are a common laboratory instrument utilized in many fields ranging from cell manipulation to conductance microscopy and electrophysiology. Current optical micropipettes, including electrodes, are unable to simultaneously emit and collect light, which is needed in some in vivo procedures, particularly those requiring incremental steps of...
