One Probe Simplifies Discovery

The MousePOD® in vivo Imaging Accessory allows you to easily convert your Odyssey Infrared Imaging System into an in vivo imager. Now, the Odyssey System can be your complete solution for in vitro, in vivo, and ex vivo analysis – all on a single, affordable platform.

Odyssey MousePOD

  • Snaps into place over Odyssey® scanning surface
  • Install and remove as needed
  • Accommodates up to 3 mice
  • Includes in vivo imaging tools for automatically marketing tumors, organs, and other regions of interest
  • Inlet and Outlet ports for gas anesthesia
    • an Anesthesia System (9300-100) and Rotameter (926-72300) can be purchased separately, if needed
  • Label your own probe, or try our ready-to-use IRDye imaging agents
Looking for a dedicated in vivo imaging system that offers speed, simplicity and sensitivity? Then LI-COR’s Pearl® Impulse Small Animal in vivo Imaging System may be just what you need!

Near-infrared Dye Probes Simplify Methodology and Discovery

One Probe Simplifies Discovery

Use the Odyssey system and IRDye® near-infrared dyes for all the steps in your molecular imaging workflow. Performing all your studies with the same probe and fluorescent label saves time, and makes data interpretation more consistent.

  • Cell-based assays

    • Test the binding and specificity of your probe with in vitro cell-based assays, before you begin animal work
    • Quick, convenient, and cost-effective method
  • Whole animal imaging

    • Use the MousePOD accessory to image anesthetized, intact animals and view distribution of the fluorescent probe
  • Ex vivo tissue analysis and histology

    • Analyze and quantify fluorescent signal in excised tissues or organs, or tissue sections, to determine distribution of the probe

  • Simultaneous two-color fluorescence detection

  • Flexible imager can perform many applications, including quantitative Western blotting

  • IRDye optical probes can also be visualized by fluorescent microscopy
