File format output
Images: JPEG
Videos: MP4
Light types:
Bottom Light, Top Light
Please be sure to discuss any fluorescence-based application with an application specialist from Reshape so we can help ensure that your application will have adequate signal and signal-to-noise
Standard filter setup optimized for GFP and RFP-like proteins
Long pass emission filter cut-off wavelengths:
530 nm
630 nm
Available excitation spectrums:
Blue: 467nm +/- 5nm
Green: 527nm +/- 5nm
Formats
90 mm Petri Dish
Omni Tray, and 6, 12, 24, 48, 96-well SBS formats
Number of plates
15x Petri Dishes
10x SBS format
Time to image at full capacity:
Bottom light
Petri dishes: <3 minutes
96-well plates: <15 minutes
Top light/fluorescence
