Why are my Essen BioScience IncuCyte ZOOM images blurry?
Blurry images can occur if the incubator containing your IncuCyte™ ZOOM is not on a sturdy stand, as vibration can negatively affect image quality. Scheduling scans when the incubator will not be accessed may also help, since opening and closing the door can cause image blurring.
How to fix focus issues caused by air bubbles in Essen BioScience IncuCyte ZOOM Laboratory Equipment?
To resolve focus issues caused by air bubbles, manually remove the air bubbles to obtain desired images. You can also modify your pipetting technique or use a de-bubbler before placing vessels in the IncuCyte™ ZOOM.
How to fix out of focus fluorescent cells using Essen BioScience IncuCyte ZOOM Laboratory Equipment?
If you're planning to image in fluorescence with a 20X objective, investigate the best setting for your system and vessel. Adjusting the corrective ring to 1.4µM may be the optimal setting.
What to do if edges of wells are out of focus in Essen BioScience IncuCyte ZOOM Laboratory Equipment?
To eliminate visual edge effects, increase the total media volume in each well. Sufficient proliferation data can still be generated with only 100 µL in each well.
