The FV3000 is a laser scanning confocal microscope system that captures high-resolution, high-contrast images by scanning samples point by point, enabling precise 3D fluorescence imaging. The system supports inverted and upright configurations and accommodates various objectives with magnifications ranging from 1.25× to 100×, including oil, silicone, and dry lenses, which allows imaging of both macro and micro-scale samples. It is equipped with multiple laser lines for excitation, including 405 nm, 488 nm, 561 nm, and 640 nm, as well as additional lines in some configurations (445 nm, 514 nm, 594 nm, 630 nm), enabling the use of several fluorophores simultaneously. On the detection side, the microscope uses high-sensitivity photomultiplier tube detectors, including GaAsP PMTs and multi-alkali PMTs.

Software R package for the analysis of kinetic phenotypic screens read as growth curves in 96-well microplates. Implements a benchmarked, simulation-validated pipeline that goes from raw OD600 trajectories to a hit list: plate-level quality control (control CV, Z'-factor, SSMD), within-plate positional correction by median polish (B-score), normalisation to the median of in-plate controls, and hit calling requiring convergence between per-plate ANOVA and a library-wide linear mixed model with Benjamini-Hochberg FDR control. Also extracts kinetic parameters (maximum specific growth rate, maximum OD, lag time) and supports functional principal component analysis and Monte Carlo validation of pipeline operating characteristics.

Software tool to perform standard analysis of colony formation assays conducted in 6- to 24-well dishes. ImageJ-plugin that is optimized to perform standard analysis of colony formation assays conducted in 6- to 24-well dishes. The plugin processes each well individually and determines not the colony number, but the area of the well covered with cells, also taking the intensity into account.
