A system for electronically and optically monitoring biological samples, the system including: a multi-well plate having a plurality of wells configured to receive a plurality of biological samples, each of the wells having a set of electrodes and a transparent window on a bottom surface of the well that is free of electrodes; an illumination module configured to illuminate the wells; a cradle configured to receive the multi-well plate, the cradle having an opening on the bottom that exposes the transparent windows of the wells; and an optical imaging module movable across different wells of a same multi-well plate to capture images through the windows.

Systems and methods for electronically and optically monitoring biological samples

An optical engine its use in a bench top flow cytometer, the optical engine having a set of lasers, each focused horizontally along an x-axis to a same horizontal position and vertically along a y-axis to a different vertical position along a same excitation plane of a flow cell, a set of optics that separate fluorescence of a same wavelength range into different locations in a focal plane of collection optics according to the different lasers by which the fluorescent light is excited; and a detector that selectively detects light from the different locations thereby distinguishing between fluorescence emitted within the same wavelength range as excited by the different lasers.
