TissueFAXS CHROMA 
High-Speed Multispectral Tissue Cytometer

TissueFAXS CHROMA Specializes In Automated Multispectral Fluorescence Whole Slide Scanning For Up To 7 Markers At A Time Made Possible By An Optimized Filter Set Eliminating Channel Bleed Through. This Cost-effective High-speed Slide Scanner Reaches Its Full Potential When Combined With Single Cell And Contextual Image Analysis. This Platform Is A Holistic Solution For Cellular Phenotyping And In-depth Tissue Microenvironment Characterization Of IF Processed Tissue Sections, TMAs, And Cells On Standard And Oversized Slides.

Product Description

Technology

TissueFAXS CHROMA provides high-speed multispectral imaging and is made possible by a customized set of SpectraSplit filters. This specialized set of filters is optimized for a wide range of dyes with the appropriate excitation/emission spectra. This technology minimizes channel bleed-through passively and therefore represents a cost-effective alternative to the liquid crystal tuneable filter, which relies on lambda stacking and spectral unmixing of overlapping emission spectra. The acquisition of lambda stacks and spectral unmixing are time consuming and data-heavy processes. TissueFAXS CHROMA focuses on increasing sample throughput by minimizing multispectral scanning speeds without compromising spectral specificity and data integrity.
