Zeiss Celldiscoverer 7

The Zeiss Celldiscoverer 7 is a boxed imaging system suited for performing automated experiments. This inverted widefield system features automatic focusing, focus stabilisation, time-course and position setup to allow researchers insert a sample and set up long-term experiments in minutes. The Celldiscoverer 7 has a fully temperature-controlled sample chamber with a CO2 pump, this chamber is highly stable and allows for live cells to stay healthier for longer. By utilising LEDs as a light-source, live-cells can be imaged gently and with low phototoxicity, making the Celldiscoverer 7 ideal for long-term live experiments. Additionally, an infrared LED is used for transmitted light brightfield and phase contrast imaging through all available objectives and through a variety of sample holders.

This system is fitted with 3 objectives which allow low magnification imaging through plastic and glass sample holders, while the higher magnification objectives are suited to acquiring high-resolution images through glass. A separate magnification changer expands the obtainable magnification range to 2.5x-100x. The water-immersion 50x objective allows for detailed imaging and is supported in automated experiments by an automatic immersion dispenser.

Common Applications

Live-cell imaging	Imaging living cells allows observation of dynamic processes, greatly improving our understanding of how biological mechanisms work. To facilitate cell survival and to simulate biologically relevant conditions for cellular function, this system includes a temperature and atmosphere controlled sample chamber. LED illumination allows gentle imaging of live cells with minimal phototoxicity. Further, Celldiscoverer 7 allows for easy setup of long-term live cell experiments for visualisation of cell migration and cell proliferation.
Sample screening	Zeiss Celldiscoverer 7 features automatic sample carrier calibration and region setup. Paired with automatic focusing, this microscope is ideal for automatically imaging large areas of live or fixed cells, including entire culture plates.
