Potential Applications
Track growth deep inside 3D organoids over days, not minutes. PXYL's gentle, deep penetration (up to 500µm) and extra-long working distance enable continuous low-toxicity imaging for organ-on-chip systems, while visualising the microenvironment and collagen scaffolds (SHG) without destroying your sample.
"See the structure. Understand the function. Keep it alive."
A versatile bioimaging tool for diverse research applications. Capture multiple contrast modes—from immunostained cells in thick tissue to label-free NADH/FAD metabolic imaging and SHG/THG structural contrast. Image up to 6 channels simultaneously for comprehensive multi-modal analysis in a single, compact system.
"Pixel-perfect multi-channel contrast, deep within the tissue."
PXYL eliminates the traditional barriers to multiphoton microscopy, making deep tissue imaging accessible to every research lab.
