CrestOptics, a microscopy manufacturer, has had its CICERO spinning disk confocal system named as a 'Top 10 Best Microscopy Innovation' by Microscopy Today, a publication from the Microscopy Society of America (MSA).
CICERO was developed as a compact and cost-effective solution to allow all of the scientific community access to high-end imaging.
The annual awards ceremony honours technological advancements in the field, focusing on how they can improve efficiency. Those selected to win provide better, faster, easier or novel analytic methods to enhance microscope workflows.
The confocal system is a solution for widefield and confocal imaging, and expands CrestOptics' portfolio to enable accessible fluorescence imaging within one solution.
The spinning disk confocal instrument has been designed and engineered to easily integrate into existing and custom workflows with maximum configuration flexibility.
Chief Commercial Officer, CrestOptics, Alessandra Scarpellini, commented “Our aim with CICERO was to engineer a system that is unique from other solutions in the market, providing all laboratories with easy access to high-quality imaging with maximum configuration flexibility, and we are delighted to see it recognised, not only with this award but also with growing notoriety in the field,”
“Studying the market, we realised the need for an instrument that was at the same time powerful and easy to integrate into different platforms. This is precisely what we envision CICERO will achieve: supporting scientists as they embark on a confocal journey and guiding them toward more meaningful discoveries.”
