A live cell imaging system differs slightly from live video recording. Instead of continuous recording, it captures still images at defined time intervals. Its primary function is to observe and monitor cells over time by taking images at specified points.

What is the purpose of its use?

The main purposes of using a live cell imaging system are as follows:

To observe and record the morphological events of cells over time
To monitor cell changes in short and long-term periods
To observe the cell mechanisms under various conditions
To study cells in an optimal environment for cells to grow and live with minimum disturbance by observing them in an incubator
