Product overview
An increasing number of researchers are using live-cell imaging to study
cellular functions. The JuLI™Br, a smart Bright-cell movie analyzer,
was designed for a variety of biological experiments.
JuLI™Br uses state-of-the-art optics to get live-cell images from
various cell culture dishes. It is able to detect the quantified cell confluence
results with low variation and make growth curve using image based analysis.
JuLI™Br is able to capture sequential time-lapse bright images which can be converted
to movie files (.avi) automatically. The compact design allows you to install the system
in your cell-culture incubator easily. It can be used to compare control and experimental
samples using dual systems (*optional), concurrently.

Installation
Installing
JuLI™ Br
Live-cell images from various cell culture dishes are directly
captured in a cell culture incubator. This compact design allows
an instrument to be installed in an incubator and prevents
contamination by maintaining a sterile environment. Also, the
easily-viewed display allows quick and convenient use in a cell
culture incubator while capturing time lapse images.
IMPORTANT
JuLI
™
Br is optimized into standard size of cell culture incubator.
It is recommend that the temperature should be stabilized in case of small size incubator
before using the instrument.
Avoid exposing JuLI™ Br to UV light.
UV light may degrade components, including plastic. Damage from UV exposure is not
covered under the manufacturer’s warranty.
Always wipe surfaces with ethanol-soaked paper towels, not directly spray ethanol
anywhere on JuLI™ Br.

1. Place the instrument on a flat, dry and level surface after
unpacking the instrument. Allow at least 10 cm (4 inches) of
free space at the back of JuLI™Br for proper ventilation and
prevention of overheating of electronic components.
2. Plug the supplied power cord into JuLI™ Br.
3. Connect scope unit to station unit using supplied
connection cable.
(*For dual monitoring, 2nd scope unit also should be connected to station unit. )
4. Plug the power cord into the electrical outlet. Be sure to only
use the power cord supplied with the instrument. Powering the
instrument with an unapproved power cord may damage the
instrument.
5. When JuLI™ Br is ready to use, start JuLI™ Br by pressing
the Power button on the station unit.
