"We irregularly do fluorescence microscopy and so the amazing features of the nuance at this stage are underutilized. Once a user gets a handle on the system the ease of use shoots right up, but the initial learning curve can be steep without a dedicated expert on hand. Not to say the training they provide is not excellent, but with any specialized system it may be overkill for a lab wanting occasional use. But if you are doing histology or other systems where cell identification is a regular use - this is the system for you!"
Nuance FX Multispectral Tissue Imaging System
Flexible bandwidth multispectral microscopy. The Nuance® FX multispectral imaging system is specifically tailored to meet the majority of all brightfield and fluorescence microscopy imaging applications. The system utilizes an optimized, high-throughput tunable filter distinctly matched to the bandwidths of common molecular markers. This solid-state filter is electronically switchable to maximize either sensitivity or throughput, enabling the Nuance FX to provide either chromogenic or fluorescence-based imaging. Nuance acquisition software incorporates easy to use tools for building custom spectral libraries, as well as powerful unmixing and analysis algorithms allowing spectral characterization and quantitation for each of the multi-labeled components in an image. inForm advanced image analysis software is also an available option for rapid analysis of targeted tissues and batch processing of user-specified regions across multiple images.
