iBox® Spectra™ Small Animal Imaging System

Small animal imaging research just got easier! Designed for quick screening and image capture, the new iBox Spectra System for in vivo animal imaging includes a high resolution camera, a touch screen, and a highly focused excitation light source to provide optimal conditions for small animal study. The high resolution camera immediately and clearly identifies the area of interest within the animal. The touch screen technology provides a simple interface for capturing images. The BioLite MultiSpectral Light Source (one filter set included) provides the excitation light source to accommodate a wide variety of florescent proteins within the body of the animal.
