CYTOOchips Arena provide users with cell confinement areas of different sizes compatible with observations under a wide range of magnifications (5x to 63x). The chips are particularly useful for monitoring highly motile cells as well as cell lineage and cell fate studies.
Arenas can also be used for standardized cell colony growth.

under 5x magnification
| Advantages and key features • Cell confinement areas (discs of 80 μm to 1000 μm in diameter) corresponding to magnifications of 5x to 63x • No cell loss during time lapse experiments • Easy cell tracking • Easy acquisition automation on multiple areas thanks to the integrated localization grid • Designed to be compatible with 1 or 4 well CYTOOchambers |
Applications • Precise cell cycle measurements |

| 80 µm (L4) | 225 µm (I10) | 500 µm (I10) | 1000 µm (G7) |
The integrated localization grid makes it easy to identify and return to a given cell group over time.
