Lipid Quantification

Compared to that of protein, lipids have a uniquely high refractive index increment (RII) value which can be used to distinguish them from most other cell compartments in terms of RI distribution.

HT is a better way to analyze lipid

Label-free

HT imaging eliminates pre-treatment process and saves time

Accurate

Lipid volume and weights are calculated based on 3D refractive index values

In situ single cell imaging

Lipids within cells are imaged and calculated at a single-cell level

Live-cell

No phototoxicity from fluorescent probes means cells remain healthy for even long-term imaging
