One common criterion for consistent confluency measurements
Mateo TL offers one common criterion for measuring confluency across the entire lab. The confluency algorithm measures the percentage of area covered by cells in the image.
Mateo TL confluency module enables you to:
- Eliminate subjective estimations.
- Achieve consistency in your confluency measurements between different users and experiments.
- Take the guesswork out of confluency evaluation.
- Use a common tool across lab experiments to consistently carry out confluency measurements and reduce variations.
- Improves experiment reproducibility.
- Minimizes human bias by using the confluency module at the point of decision.
Smart functionalities
Observe, take images of samples and export images quickly and conveniently using enhanced smart functionalities
- Wirelessly transfer images directly to your smartphone or tablet with the quick share feature.
- Easily reproduce the imaging conditions of a previous reference image in the gallery using the repeat function.
- Free up more time from sample observation by eliminating the need to make frequent adjustments to the light and camera settings for each magnification with Mateo TL’s built-in light memory function.
Enhance your team’s comfort
- Minimize fatigue by eliminating the need to use oculars.
- Mateo TL can be placed inside a laminar flow hood of compatible dimension for convenient cell culture work inside the hood, which also helps to minimize cell contamination.
