Incucyte® S3 Applications
Experience faster discovery with the suite of live-cell applications from Incucyte®. Obtain real-time insight into morphological and phenotypic changes for pathway and mechanistic studies by observing time-dependent and cell-dependent treatment effects.
Begin your investigations from the moment cells are placed in culture. Whether you work rare or expensive cell types such as primary cells, stem-cell derived cultures, patient derived cells, or recombinant cell lines, you can quantitate and validate cell morphology and phenotype at all stages of cell maintenance and modification. Furthermore, the applications enable analysis of a wide range of phenotypic cell-based assays.
With the insights gained from Incucyte® assays, you can make informed decisions, quickly optimize workflows, and efficiently study complex live-cell assays to accelerate your next discovery.

FAQ for Live-Cell Imaging and Analysis Instrument: Incucyte® S3
The fluorescent channels vary depending on the instrument. The Incucyte® S3 comes standard with two-color Green/Red fluorescence plus HD phase contrast imaging, but users have the option to separately purchase an Orange/NIR Optical Module for studies with sensitive cells that require imaging at longer wavelengths.
All Incucyte® models provide multi-user support with unlimited, free user licenses. Additionally, multiple assays can be run and imaged in different channels in parallel. However, only the Incucyte® SX5 and S3 support independent vessel scheduling for different image acquisition frequencies, and the Incucyte® SX5 is the only instrument equipped with an automated turret, providing multi-objective scheduling support.
The Incucyte® itself is not an incubator, but rather sits within a standard tissue culture incubator so cells are maintained in a physiologically relevant environment. For the Incucyte® S3, an incubator larger than 200L is recommended.
The Incucyte® S3 is a great instrument for your company. Incucyte® S3 shares the same highest maximum throughput as the Incucyte® SX5 but supports only the phase channel as well as green and red fluorescence.
Because we want to provide the best and most relevant support to your research, Sartorius experts are available to demonstrate the features and benefits of our live-cell imaging and analysis systems in a personalized manner.
