FluorVivo™

Partnering with AntiCancer Inc. ( www.anticancer.com ), INDEC BioSystems proudly announces FluorVivo to the market. FluorVivo™ is a complete, turn-key system for quantitative fluorescence imaging of small animals in vivo.

Approach
• Tissues are selectively induced to express fluorophores such as GFP or RFP
• FluorVivo’s stable light source excites those fluorophores in situ
• FluoVivo’s digital camera (color or monochrome) collects emission images
• The imaging is noninvasive and high resolution (megapixel)
• FluorVivo software measures sizes of structures and quantifies intensities
• Complete reporting and data archival facilities are built into the system
  
  
Applications
• Fluorescence screening of small animals with expressed fluorescent markers
• Tumor and metastasis burden assessment
• Drug efficacy testing
• Pharmacokinetics of internalized substances
• Quantitative measurement of fluorescent objects, e.g. tumor burden
• Continuous or time lapse monitoring



Benefits
• Fast, uncomplicated acquisition of fluorescence images
• Easy-to-use, powerful visualization tools help you separate object from autofluorescence background
• Area and length calibration
• Data archival allows adding new data as experiments progress over days or weeks
• Date and time stamping allows as-you-go analysis
• Affordable low-end system
• FluorVivo image data can further analyzed and visualized in Power Analysis Station, the INDEC BioSystems software with a superset of analysis features.
• FluorVivo is one of INDEC BioSystems family of products for acquisition and analysis of images for live cells and animals
  
  
Components
• Digital camera (monochrome or color models available)
• Dark chamber
• Fluorescence excitation source
• Computer (optional)
• Image acquisition and analysis software
• Package includes one day’s training at the facilities of AntiCancer, Inc., in San Diego, CA, USA (travel costs not included)
