Explore Biology at Single-Cell Resolution
Single cell analysis traditionally requires the use of multiple instruments over the course of months. The Lightning system makes it possible to clone, grow, assay, and recover cells in a matter of days.
After automated cloning, assay and monitor cells individually using brightfield and fluorescence. Create a visual record of every cell in every experiment and understand complex biology at a level that’s not possible with any other method.
