Established in 2004, Aurox are expert designers and manufacturers of fast, versatile confocal spinning disk fluorescence microscopy instruments. Aurox invented and patented the structured illumination spinning disk confocal, the enabling technology for laser free confocal microscopy.
Aurox Clarity
Introducing the Aurox Clarity, the compact, easy and affordable upgrade to laser-free confocal imaging using your existing fluorescence microscope.
Aurox Unity
Introducing the Aurox Unity, a new breed of all-in-one, compact laser-free confocal microscope system designed for ease of access and ease of use.
We imaged a Drosophila mid-gut to exemplify how fast large mosaics can be taken with the Aurox Clarity. 4-channels, 4 z-levels and 50 tiles, imaged in 8 mins.
We got an unbeatable system price-wise, and the quality of the images is excellent! We are also able to acquire images with superresolution with our system, which is a great experimental advantage.
Aurox have been supplying Carl Zeiss for >10 years now. We have been constantly impressed by the company’s technical expertise, attention to detail and eagerness to go the extra mile to satisfy a discerning customer.
While the Visionary interface initially looked very different to anything that we have worked with previously, it proved to be very intuitive to use, easy to learn and extremely sleek in operation.
The Visionary interface is easy to learn with colour-coded steps that guide the user to a quick hardware set up and fast imaging acquisition.
This technology allows a fast multicolour image acquisition at high speed and in multiple dimensions. It is particularly well suited for us to investigate the interaction between nanoparticles and living cells, including dendritic and cancer cells.
The Aurox system has two main features that are advantageous for us. A narrow depth of field compared with widefield fluorescence and fast image acquisition.
The Clarity has offered us an affordable solution for high resolution and high speed imaging for four channel imaging backed by a simple and easy to use Visionary software.
Aurox allowed me to visualise detailed staining that I had previously missed using other systems. The technology was user friendly and produced lovely multicolour images very quickly.
Aurox are fantastic to work with, as we can obtain direct access to their technical specialists to obtain details of advanced uses of their product.
I/we are amazed by the performance of the Aurox system. We have been using it every day for experiments using a variety of cells and most often combined with patch clamping.
