Fluxion Biosciences BioFlux™ 1000Z System for Live Cell Imaging Under Flow

The BioFlux 1000Z provides an integrated solution for running live cell assays under flow using Fluxion’s Well Plate Microfluidic™ devices. It features a fully-automated imaging workstation built around the industry-leading ZEISS AxioObserver microscope. New modules for this platform include Carl Zeiss’ proprietary Definite Focus LED-based autofocus mechanism and PlasDIC module for differential internal contrast imaging. As with the original BioFlux 1000, the 1000Z system is driven by the BioFlux Montage software which ties together all of the hardware components. It features automated scanning routines and analysis solutions for BioFlux microfluidic flow experiments.
