Popis: 1 Constantly improving biological assay development continues to drive technological requirements. Recently, a specification was defined for capturing white light and fluorescent images of agar plates ranging in size from the NUNC Omni tray (96-well footprint, 128 × 85 mm) to the NUNC BioAssay Dish (245 × 245 mm). An evaluation of commercially available products failed to identify any system capable of fluorescent macroimaging with discrete wavelength selection. To address the lack of a commercially available system, a custom imaging system was designed and constructed. This system provides the same capa- bilities of many commercially available systems with the added ability to fluorescently image up to a 245 × 245 mm area using wavelengths in the visible light spectrum.
