Integra 3™
The Integra 3 has been designed to create the best possible conditions for ICSI and sample manipulation. It ensures gametes and embryos remain at optimum temperature using unique Thermosafe™ technology and through advanced mechanical design, it is ultra-responsive, smooth and easy to use. You can change micropipettes in seconds, transforming the efficiency of your work, and use oil or air syringes for sample control.
Featuring Thermosafe
Thermosafe maintains sample temperature across the dish by passing a gentle stream of warmed air under the Petri dish. The thermal images below, taken with a 40x objective in place on an inverted microscope, display the cooling effect of the objective on the centre of the dish with and without Thermosafe.
Key Features
- No cold spots – Thermosafe maintains sample temperature with a gentle stream of warm air under the Petri dish
- Super-fast – Improved rapid micropipette set-up with one-step angle adjustment
- Practical – Motion sensor LED light underneath the stage for improved visibility when changing objectives
- Safe – Heating system status indicator light and alarm monitors every second of the process. A log is kept of every alarm triggered
- Integrated – Large built-in mechanical XY stage plus temperature controllers with easy access buttons and touch screen
- Accurate – New extra-fine mechanisms for smooth and precise movement of the stage and micropipettes
