Which EVOS cell imaging system is best for you?
All EVOS microscopes share common features: high resolution imaging; bright LED light sources; high-resolution cameras and optics; compact, efficient design; minimal handling; and powerful, intuitive software. The one that’s right for you depends on your needs and applications. For a versatile laboratory workhorse, choose between the fully automated EVOS M7000 Imaging System and the advanced mechanical EVOS M5000 Imaging System. For a basic microscope suitable for cell culture applications, choose the EVOS M3000 Imaging System.
If your application involves high-content analysis (HCA) or screening, consider the EVOS M7000 HCA Package or the CellInsight platforms. For spatial biology and multiplex tissue imaging, consider the EVOS S1000 Spatial Imaging System.
