Aperio Secures Exclusive License to Genie Pro™ Image Pattern Recognition Technology for Digital Pathology

Aperio Receives FDA Approval for HER2 Image Analysis Application

Feature Product

The Quorum angstrom™ is a unique product designed specifically to circumvent common engineering limitations and restrictions found in the illumination pathways of microscope stands available in today’s market. The angstrom™ is an engineered optical projection device with enhanced optical components. The system is modular in nature and can be used for several microscope applications, the most common of which are associated with fluorescence illumination. The angstrom™ can be adapted to any microscope that has a photo-port or, alternatively, optical adapters can be used to connect the angstrom™ directly to

microscope objectives for OEM applications. By creating an illumination pathway that is both accessible and optically refined; the angstrom™ provides a platform for advanced applications which require precision, resolution, stability, quality light projection, and reproducibility.

Current Clients

As you may be aware, Apple is planning a major upgrade of their current Operation System from OS 10.4 (Tiger) to OS 10.5 (Leopard). This should prove to be an exciting 64 bit operating system and our partners are working hard to ensure compatibility with this system.

However, as with all new releases there are often issues with the initial release, so we STRONGLY RECOMMEND that you DO NOT UPGRADE any of your systems that are currently using any software or hardware that you've purchased from Quorum until we have tested and approved your configuration.

Please do not hesitate to contact us should you have any questions.

	Quorum WaveFX Spinning Disc Quorum is one of the early adopters of the Spinning Disc Confocal technology and has led the Canadian Market with the WaveFX. We continue to impress researchers with images they have not been able to obtain with scanning confocal systems or any other modality.
	Synapse Laser Merger Module The Quorum SYNAPSE™ is a custom engineered merge module capable of coupling multiple lasers into one single mode fiber optic light guide.Applications include Spinning Disc Confocal Microscopy, Laser Microdissection, TIRF and FACS.
	Aperio Digital Pathology Systems Aperio's ScanScope Systems, comprised of award-winning ScanScope scanners and Digital Slide Information Management Software, deliver integrated digital slide creation, viewing,management, and analysis tools for virtual microscopy in education, clinical and research applications..
	Molecular Machines Industries Laser Microdissection isolates tissue from a range of sample types including paraffin, cryo and live cultures. The isolated tissue can be used for molecular analysis. Optical trapping allows the user to accurately move small, biologically activeparticles onto, or into live cells to study location specific interactios including force measurements.
	Volocity Software Volocity is the most technically innovative and complete 3D imaging solution ever created for Life Science research. Four unique, totally integrated products provide a full suite of tools for 3D image acquisition, volume visualization, restoration, publication, and object measurement, tracking and charting.
	Live Cell Instruments Chamlide One of the most challenging aspects of live cell imaging is keeping cells happy over time. Quorum is pleased to introduce the Live Cell Instruments line of imaging chambers. These chambers offer control of temperature, CO2, humidity and perfusion. The Chamlide is the flagship product of the company. It uses a patented magnetic system for ease of assembly. Using conventional screw type chambers can result in broken or warped coverslips and dried out samples due to leakage. Installing a coverslip into the Chamlide only takes a few seconds and provides an effective imaging chamber that is safe and leak proof. Several chamber formats are available from single well to multi-well systems. Specialized chambers are available for shear stress studies, cooling, perfusion and electric stimulation. For all common stages including piezo inserts.
