Instrument Overview
The Incucyte® SX5 Live-Cell Analysis System is an integrated live-cell imaging platform designed for continuous, automated monitoring of cells directly inside a standard cell culture incubator (37°C, 5% CO₂). By combining brightfield and multi-channel fluorescence imaging, the system enables real-time visualization and quantitative analysis of cell growth, morphology, viability, migration, and protein expression over extended periods.
Unlike conventional endpoint assays, the Incucyte® SX5 provides kinetic, time-resolved data while maintaining stable cell culture conditions, allowing researchers to capture dynamic cellular processes with minimal disturbance.
Key Features
• Real-time live-cell imaging and quantitative analysis
• Long-term continuous monitoring under physiological culture conditions
• Brightfield and multi-channel fluorescence imaging capabilities
• Automated image acquisition and data analysis
• Compatible with multiple culture formats, including 96-well and 384-well plates
• Kinetic analysis for dynamic cellular response profiling
Applications
• Cell proliferation and confluence analysis
• Cytotoxicity and cell death assays
• Immune cell killing assays
• Cell migration and invasion assays
• Apoptosis analysis
• Organoid and spheroid imaging
• Fluorescent reporter assays and cell tracking
• Drug screening and long-term treatment response analysis
Advantages
The Incucyte® SX5 enables non-invasive, continuous monitoring of living cells without interrupting culture conditions, improving experimental reproducibility and providing comprehensive temporal data. The system is particularly valuable for studies requiring dynamic observation of cellular behavior over time.
