BSM Digital Microscanner
BSM
Introduction
In the research process of life science, microscopic observation is an indispensable technique. But traditional microscopic observation is limited by time, region, personnel and equipment. Specimens must be observed in the laboratory by professionals using a microscope device. The Whole Slide Imaging (WSI) technology is an organic combination of modern digital systems and traditional optical magnification devices. After digital imaging of specimens through this technology, researches can perform digital reading at any location, realizing a revolution in digital imaging and reading.
Feature
1.Bright field & fluorescence imaging methods
The product has both bright field and fluorescence imaging methods, allowing researchers to switch freely in and application.
2.Support standard slides and various custom size slides
3.Multi objective lens system
BSM series support configuration of multiple objective lenses, up to 3. It is convenient for researchers to observe specimens from low magnification to high magnification, or even oil lens, supporting various application scenarios and projects.
4.Automatic oil filling
The automatic oil dripping system can meet the needs of researchers for oil lens observation. The automatic oil dripping system eliminates the trouble of researchers frequently oiling the objective lens.
5.Multi feeding mechanism
The feeding mechanism is designed to be 5 pieces, 50 pieces, 100 pieces, 200 pieces, (it can be customized to upgrade to 400 pieces, 600 pieces, of higher throughput).
Each tray can hold up to 5 standard slides, and the tray-type design ensures the safety of specimens, without broke or stuck. The label recognition of slide specimens can be realized before the specimen is scanned, and barcode/QR code is supported. Panoramic image acquisition and algorithms before scanning can help researchers locate the scanning area more quickly, or manually set scanning parameters to meet individual needs.
6.Efficient and user-friendly operation
The operation interface and image reading and observation interface are simple and easy to use. The concise working interface provides the greatest convenience for researchers. Digital slice reading software (local/remote).
The software can be accessed through local or network storage to view microscopic digital slices, and can also view uploaded microscopic digital slice images through internet connection or local area network connection. Support image annotation, measurement and other functions.

Application
Microorganism
Microbial smears are commonly used for clinical inspection, teaching and scientific research. Microorganisms are analyzed by observing the microstructure, quantity and dynamics of microorganisms such as bacteria and fungi. The BSM microscanner can convert microbial smear specimens into digital slides, enabling digital reading at multiple terminals.
Gram-negative bacteria Escherichia coli
Nissl staining
Auramine O staining
Pathology
In histopathological and cytopathological studies, the ability to assess cell morphology and analyze two objects (localization) in close proximity or overlapping with each other is critical. Based on the accumulation of optical technology for many years, the optical system of BSM microscanner can make the target cells clearer. The cells and tissues can be seen at a glance, and the pathological section can be comprehensively evaluated.
FISH fluorescence
Immunofluorescence technology is often used in disease diagnosis and drug development to analyze samples. BSM microscanner can detect multiple molecular targets in samples, gathering information from multiple molecular targets onto a digital slide through image fusion. It provides a powerful help for the researchers to analyze the results.

Blood
Blood is one of the most important tissues in the human body. The changes of white blood cells, platelets and red blood cells in the blood reflect the health and metabolic level of the human body. In clinical inspection work, blood cell morphological examination is a basic but very important inspection item. BSM microscanner can convert blood cell smears into digital slides, and provide high-definition and comprehensive blood cell images for inspection personnel on the reading software for diagnosis.
