- Standard HOTgui software allows for simple operation with minimal training even by users unfamiliar with optical trapping providing point-and-click simplicity.
- Optional HOT API software allows for higher level
access to optical trapping functions for application programmers to allow
direct control through many programming languages, including LabVIEW, MATLAB,
IDL, C, and C++.
- Optional LabRyx software, written with LabVIEW,
allows for advanced trap controls and integration with other scientific devices
and provides support for a broader array
of scientific cameras.
- Standard brightfield transmitted illumination
- Phase contrast microscopy components - useful for imaging cells and cellular components
- Polarized light microscopy components - useful for birefringent materials
- Reflected light microscopy components - for working with opaque substrates
- Differential interference contrast (DIC) components - designed to work with the BioRyx 200 system without interfering with trapping
- Darkfield microscopy components - useful for imaging very small objects
- Epi-fluorescence attachment - Includes UV source and fluorescence cube.
(LabRyx software is recommended for use with higher
sensitivity cameras.)
- Selection of objectives for ideal trapping of various sample configurations
- Standard analog camera allows video and still image capture
- Selection of Q-Imaging Retiga and other scientific cameras
(require LabRyx Software)
- Prior ProScan II motorized stage with joystick and RS232 controls- accepts 1x3" microscope slides
- Optional Universal Sample adapter stage insert
- Arryx custom-designed plastic sample stage adapters
- Sample and objective warmers
