CSU-X1 - Yokogawa

Applications

Multi-color imaging of live cells and tissues

High-speed and high-resolution imaging with minimal photobleaching and phototoxicity makes the CSU-X1 the most suitable tool for imaging quick and delicate changes in live cells and tissues in real-time and for a long time.
