Easily track and go back
The fully integrated EVOS M5000 Imaging System combines precision optics, an articulated 18.5-inch high-resolution LCD monitor, and a highly sensitive camera. It delivers high-quality four-color fluorescence, transmitted light, phase-contrast, and color images with excellent flexibility across a broad range of applications and imaging requirements. Designed by biologists for biologists, this remarkably easy-to-use microscope enables seamless image acquisition and provides a convenient set of tools for analysis and annotation that can be used in live mode and with saved images.
The Stage View feature allows you to track your location as you manually move the stage and search for your cells. Areas of interest can be marked, saved, and returned to, at any time.

Features
In addition to the common features of all EVOS microscopes, the EVOS M5000 Imaging System offers:
Easily track and go back
Stage-tracking intelligence simplifies returning to precise stage locations
Optimal performance
Autofocus, Z-stack capability, time-lapse imaging, and multichannel capture with a single click
Onboard analytics
Easy access to machine learning–based bioapplications for cell counting, transfection efficiency, and confluency
Easy self-installation
No maintenance, assembly, alignment, or calibration
True color
Unique and proprietary RGB illumination mode renders true color in transmitted light
Connectivity
Access images and data anytime, anywhere with internet access to the Thermo Fisher Connect Platform
Location intelligence
The proprietary EVOS Stage View feature allows you to track your location as you manually move the stage and search for your cells. Areas of interest can be pinned, saved and returned to, at any time. Sets of pins can be saved as a map so you can power off the instrument and return to the saved locations later. The software lets you load a saved map and easily re-locate areas of interest in your sample.

Easily return to the same cells with a manual microscope using location intelligence of the Stage View feature of the EVOS M5000 Imaging System. U2OS cells incubated with Invitrogen CellLight Tubulin-GFP, BacMam 2.0 (Cat. No. C10613) and CellLight Nucleus-RFP, BacMam 2.0 (Cat. No. C10603) were treated with 1 mM paclitaxel. Multiple pins were placed using Stage View at time 0; cells located at pin 9 were easily located and imaged at 2.5, 5, and 10 hours.
