What types of assays can an Incucyte Zoom system perform?

This system is capable of performing a wide range of live-cell assays, including cell proliferation, cytotoxicity, apoptosis, migration, invasion, and neurite outgrowth analysis.

Is specialised software required to operate this equipment?

Yes, Incucyte systems utilise proprietary software for image acquisition, processing, and quantitative analysis of cellular metrics. Specialty modules may also be available.

Can this system be integrated with existing laboratory equipment?

The core imaging gantry is designed to reside within a standard tissue culture incubator. External controllers manage the imaging and data, allowing for integration into laboratory workflows.

What maintenance is typically required for an Incucyte Zoom?

Routine maintenance typically involves cleaning of optical components and ensuring the system's environment within the incubator is optimal. Calibration checks may also be recommended periodically.

Are consumables specific to the Incucyte system?

While the system works with standard labware like T-flasks and microtiter plates, certain assays may benefit from or require specific Incucyte-compatible reagents or hardware tools (e.g., WoundMaker).

This listing is for the Essen Bioscience Incucyte Zoom Analysis System.

The unit is in full working condition and is ready for immediate use.

The IncuCyte ZOOM Live‑Cell Analysis System is a pioneering live‑cell imaging and analysis platform developed by Essen BioScience (now part of Sartorius).

It enables fully automated, time‑lapse imaging—and quantitative analysis—of live cells within their native incubator environment over extended periods.

Hardware configuration:

The microscope gantry resides inside a tissue culture incubator.

The external controller handles image acquisition, storage, and processing.

Imaging capabilities:

Supports 4×, 10×, and 20× objectives (image resolutions: ~3.05 µm/pixel at 4×, 1.22 µm/pixel at 10×, and 0.61 µm/pixel at 20×).
Fluorescence: green (ex: 440–480 nm, em: 504–544 nm) and red (ex: 565–605 nm, em: 625–705 nm) channels.
Can house and image multiple T‑flasks or microtiter plates—up to six at a time—and process over 2,000 images per hour.

Software & analysis:

Batch processing of cell metrics: confluence, cell number, morphology, fluorescence, and more.
Specialty modules like NeuroTrack support neurite/dendrite analysis.
Works with hardware tools (e.g., WoundMaker) and specialized software like CellPlayer for migration and scratch-wound assay.
