The company's proprietary process uses a novel iterative phase retrieval algorithm to generate both amplitude and phase images of an object, and has applications in optical, X-ray and electron microscopy, amongst others. In addition, Phase Focus has developed Livecyte™, a Kinetic Cytometer that quantifies and compares dynamic live cell behaviour, without the need for fluorescent labels. Livecyte produces high-contrast videos of live cells without the need for fluorescent labels or high-power illumination, enabling clients to monitor and characterise even the most sensitive live cells, such as stem cells and heterogeneous primary cancer cells, for long periods of time (up to multiple weeks) in a 96-well plate format. Powered by their patented Ptychographic computational imaging technology, Phase Focus enables scientists to understand and compare the dynamic behaviour of thousands of individual cells at a depth previously impossible.
