The XMD-2 manifold dividers help to eliminate signal crosstalk and minimize unwanted interference between bioluminescent and fluorescent light signals from different test subjects during concurrent imaging sessions. This interference reduction is essential for maintaining data integrity and ensuring accurate quantitative measurements in studies involving multiple animals positioned within the same imaging chamber.
Recognizing that laboratory animals vary significantly in size depending on species, age, and experimental conditions, the XMD-2 manifold dividers are available in multiple standardized heights to provide optimal accommodation for different animal dimensions. This versatility ensures researchers can maintain proper signal isolation whether working with juvenile mice, adult mice, or other small laboratory animals of varying sizes.
The available baffle heights for the XMD-2 manifold dividers include five options: 1.0 cm, 1.3 cm, 1.5 cm, 1.8 cm, and 2.5 cm. This graduated sizing system allows researchers to select the most appropriate divider height based on their specific experimental requirements and animal models.
