xCELLigence RTCA eSight — 成像和阻抗

Typical immune cell killing assays are labor-intensive and require users to collect multiple timepoints using a combination of techniques. In contrast, the label-free xCELLigence RTCA instruments provide a complete view of immune cell killing and closely mimics activity in vivo. Obtain highly sensitive, reproducible, and direct measurements of immune cell killing potency in real time. This simple and high throughput workflow also provides greater insight into cellular mechanism of action, serial killing, and exhaustion.

Advance your anti-viral therapy or vaccine development by accurately measuring viral cytopathic effects (CPE) in real time with Agilent xCELLigence RTCA instruments, without the use of labor-intensive plaque assays. Monitor viral CPE automatically, from minutes to days, and greatly reduce workload and manual handling of samples. Measure cell proliferation kinetics, identify the optimal time point for viral infection with different cell seeding densities, and assess virus-mediated cytopathogenicity in one workflow.

Determine cytotoxic effects of drugs or compounds by monitoring cell proliferation, cell size or morphology, and cell-substrate attachment quality in real time. Monitor the kinetics of long-term cellular responses with this simple and high-throughput cytotoxicity assay. Make informed decisions about the timing of cell treatments and easily generate dose-response curves at multiple time points, without increasing the workload.

Learn about apoptosis and proliferation assays that are simple, quantitative, and high throughput to provide multiple perspectives into cell health and viability. Measure real-time cell health directly and capture early and late apoptotic events such as modulation of cell adhesion, cell membrane integrity, and cell detachment. Track proliferation of host cells to detect readout for drug toxicity or presence of a virus. Detect and quantify apoptosis in living cells by label-free approach, or using apoptotic or nuclear labeling reagents. The xCELLigence RTCA eSight provides multiple temporal vantage points (impedance, fluorescence imaging, and brightfield imaging).
