#CellScanFact No 5: Enjoy the most flexible scanner system!
The MMI CellScan is a microscope-based whole slide imaging system which can use all the features of the microscope. Thus, you can obtain images using all objectives and all imaging modes, even fluorescence! In addition, you can scan any sample format that fits your microscope stage!
#CellScanFact No 4: Your microscope is your scanner!
Don’t waste money and lab space on buying a microscope and a scanner. All you need is our MMI CellScan, which is a microscope-based whole slide imaging system. Use it as normal research microscope AND obtain high resolution images in brightfield and fluorescence!
Publication news: “A novel Microproteomic Approach Using Laser Capture Microdissection to Study Cellular Protrusions”
Cellular protrusions are important ways of cell-cell communication. Thus, different types of protrusions play critical roles during development, cell signaling or the spreading of pathogens or cancer. This study by Dr. Karine Gousset and her team describe for the first time a method to specifically isolate distinct protrusion subtypes, based on their morphological structures or […]
#CellScanFact No 3: Scan in brightfield and fluorescence!
The MMI CellScan can acquire images both in brightfield and fluorescence using any filter set on your microscope. Obtain colorful and meaningful images with our multi-color whole slide imaging system!
Publication news: “Mechanisms generating cancer genome complexity from a single cell division error”
Cancer genomes are characterized by a plethora of different mutations, deletions, translocations and other DNA modifications. The mechanism that leads to chromosomal translocations has recently been deciphered by Dr. Neil Umbreit and his team from Harvard Medical School. To investigate the genome of two daughter cells after mitosis with chromosome bridges, Dr. Neil Umbreit separately […]
#CellScanFact No 2: Scan at any magnification!
Do you wish to benefit from a high-resolution scan using a 40x objective or even oil immersion objectives, rather than only using a 20x objective? The MMI CellScan can use all objectives on your microscope. In addition, you can combine any objective with brightfield and fluorescence imaging.
What a battle: Plant vs. Virus!
You can now watch the on-demand webinar entitled „Plant vs. Virus: Comparative transcriptomic analysis of single TuMV-infected micro-dissected plant cells“. In this webinar, you will find: How studying the early events of virus infection in plants avoids the dilution effect and allows identification of the key molecular players involved in initial plant-virus interactions. How the […]
#CellScanFact No 1: Scan it all!
Do you want to scan tissue slides and also living cells in cell culture dishes? The MMI CellScan can scan all sample formats that fit onto your microscope stage, such as glass slides, membrane slides for laser microdissection, petri dishes, large format slides, and of course different well slides. Don’t limit yourself with a scanner […]
New #CellScanFacts series starts today!
Whole slide imaging becomes more and more important for research. Especially during the spread of SARS-CoV-2, remote work and tele-consulting played a cruicial role in the daily work of scientists and medical professionals. The MMI CellScan ‚Oligo-Slide-Scanner‘ is a microscope-based whole slide imaging system offering many advantages over conventional slide scanner systems. In our weekly […]
#CellCutFact No 12: Cut any shape!
The MMI CellTools software allows you to mark target cells of any size and shape, using a diverse set of pre-defined shapes, such as circles, ellipses and squares, at any size, and you also the free-hand tool to draw around the cells or area of interest. In addition, the software allows you to copy/paste shapes […]
