i1000 Motorized Custom Inverted Microscopes

The most advanced and intuitive motorized microscope on the market.

The i1000 microscope is the next generation in live cell microscopy and imaging microscopes. A completely motorized microscope with an open design, the i1000 is a perfect budget-conscious solution for any lab working with live cells and beyond.

The backbone of the scope is the NIS60 optical technology which incorporates the most advanced infinity optics. These optics are designed with custom coatings, high numerical apertures, and long working distances to provide unsurpassed imaging for all applications. One scope in any configuration can perform brightfield, phase, DIC, Hoffman Contrast, fluorescence, confocal, TIRF, and micromanipulation.

Full motorization of every component allows users to streamline the workflow, and with the advanced imaging software included, automated, 6-D, long-term experiments can be set up and run with the click of a button. Users can perform all imaging modalities, including confocal, on a single microscope platform.

There is an integrated LED control panel to control all components manually. This allows users to set up their experiments or use the scope for other microscopy applications, making the scope a valuable tool for any laboratory.

While the scope and all components are motorized, modularity is not lost. Labs can grow with this scope and add other imaging techniques like confocal, TIRF, FRAP, and others to enhance your imaging requirements.

• Animal health and breeding centers that are completing small-scale LN2 work
• Research and quality assurance labs producing cryogenic experiments or support tools

How to Choose the Right Scientific Dewar Containers

The ideal liquid nitrogen (LN2) storage dewar for your facility or project will depend on how you plan to use it.

Consider your needs regarding:

• Footprint and capacity: If you have limited space or require portability, opt for a smaller model. Larger models will increase your LN2 capacity and reduce refill frequency
• Static hold and evaporation rate: The less evaporation that occurs, the longer you can go without refilling LN2. However, especially sensitive materials may require a model that prioritizes hold time over evaporation rate
• Access: Smaller device necks can conserve more LN2 when dispensing, but may be more challenging to use and slow down operations that require frequent dispensing
• Portability: The more compact your laboratory dewar flask is, the easier it will be to transport and use in field research. If portability is not a concern, a larger model may offer more benefits
• Accessory compatibility: While IC Biomedical’s catalog usually aligns with standard accessories (e.g., canisters, racks, transfer lines), check the specifications of the models you are reviewing to make sure they will integrate with your existing workflow
