Thrive Bioscience Debuts New Cell Imaging Capabilities That Advance Laboratory Automation

SAN DIEGO, Feb. 23, 2023 /PRNewswire/ — SLAS 2023 – Thrive Bioscience Inc., an innovative provider of automated live cell imaging instruments and software, debuts a new integrated suite of unique and exciting capabilities that significantly advance the field of live cell imaging.

Thrive Bioscience Debuts New Cell Imaging Capabilities That Advance Laboratory Automation

Thrive’s CellAssist family of networkable instruments provide unprecedented new capabilities for researchers to automatically capture 1,000’s of time-series images now with 100+ focal planes on one to 50 cell culture plates within a controlled environment. Imaging modes include phase contrast and bright-field at 4x, 10x, and 20x in 6-well to 384-well plates.

The CellAssist family includes a benchtop model and a robotic 50-plate model, each producing comprehensive databases of high-quality images, metrics, and documentation that provide researchers groundbreaking insights into cell and tissue dynamics.

New CellAssist family product capabilities include:

• Imaging a 4mm z-range with 100+ focal planes, each 2 µm to 50 µm apart (user-selectable)
• Faster image capture rates (gigabytes of images in minutes)
• Image correction for physical variations in cell culture plates
• Imaging in round bottom plates
• Advanced set-up, networking, and remote access tools

“The CellAssist’s unique imaging capabilities have vastly improved organoid imaging, IVF imaging, viral plaque assays, gene editing (CRISPR), and stem cell production for researchers” explained Thomas Farb-Horch, CEO of Thrive.
