Human Umbilical Vein Endothelial Cells undergoing mitosis with Nanolive imaging

Endothelial cells are found in the inner layer of both blood and lymphatic vessels and they play a role in substance transport and in a variety of other physiological processes.

Mitosis
One of the samples led to the observation of a mitotic process. During the live cell imaging of the sample we could observe chromatin condensation, chromosome alineation in the metaphase plate, chromatids migration and the formation of the contractile ring and further separation in two fully functional daughter cells.

Technology:
Nanolive imaging, Switzerland.
The 3D Cell Explorer is a high speed, high resolution and non-invasive live cell imaging microscope that can look deep inside biological systems. This allows you to record stunning 3D images of entire cells in just seconds and with a higher resolution than any conventional microscope on the market.
