Chinese Hamster Ovary (CHO) Cells

hamster ovary images

Transfected Chinese Hamster Ovary cells, an axial (top) and a lateral view of a single cell. This image was reconstructed from optical sections of actin-stained specimen (confocal fluorescence).

"We have used (and continue to use) VoxBlast here in the Confocal Imaging Facility at Monash University for several projects that require volume visualization and analysis. I find it a great programme with easy to implement rendering and visualization features, and users get good results after a reasonably short training session. This is a good package, and I watch with interest as it continues to get better. Moreover, the software development team and tech support is amenable to interaction with users both regarding needed features and assistance with application problems."
