Description

ODIN is an add-on module, compatible with any commercial microscope or C-mount lens system, offering a multi-dimensional data perspective, capturing intricate cellular interactions and behaviors for a holistic understanding of cellular dynamics. Its dual sorting criteria (sorting software sold separately), combining fluorescence and image-based analysis, significantly reducing false positives/negatives, improving the purity of sorted cell populations, making ODIN a crucial tool for in-depth research and the development of targeted therapies.

ODIN high-performance camera system comes with four components (1 year warranty):
1. Integrated camera module and image processing
2. Ultra-short pulse 3 color LED light engine
3. Signal hub
4. ODIN software

The VELOMIR software suite is an advanced add-on that enhances the ODIN system for microrheology applications. It is available for purchase separately.

VELOMIR: Add-on Microrheology Software (Optional)

VELOMIR is a powerful and user-friendly particle tracking platform, offering state-of-the-art precision and cutting-edge speed. VELOMIR is ideal for microrheology experiments using passive microrheology, the sensor's tracks are evaluated offline to compute the time-dependent mean squared displacement (MSD) and the frequency dependent viscoelastic properties of the surrounding material. By measuring frequencies up to 10 kHz, the sensor can resolve the biologically important band of polymer crossover frequencies, ranging from 100 Hz and above. This capability provides new insights and reveals changes in the stiffness of cells and tissues when exposed to external factors such as drugs, stress, and nutrients. Using long time traces, the sensor can observe changes that would otherwise be inaccessible, making it possible to resolve and track active transport within cells.
