Full environmental Control for Every Imaging Platform

AiroBox® Iced

AiroBox is a cutting-edge, compact stage-top incubator designed for reliable environmental control. It offers seamless regulation of temperature, below and above room temperature, control of gas composition, and humidity—ensuring optimal conditions for live-cell imaging and single molecule assays.
10°C to 45°C
Exploit an expanded temperature range starting from 10°C and going up to 45 °C. Combining AiroBox with VaHeat precision and range (up to 100°C).
Sample flexibility
Use AiroBox’s modular design that is compatible with various sample geometries such as multi-well plates, petri dishes, microscope slides, and VaHeat.
O2, CO2 and H2O
Control the gas composition surrounding your sample precisely, via active gas mixing and state-of-the art gas sensors close inside the stage-top.

Active cooling for long-term imaging

AiroBox provides active cooling below room temperature, down to 10 °C, while maintaining a controlled imaging environment for long-term microscopy experiments. This enables stable sample conditions at lower temperatures without compromising imaging performance.

Precise atmospheric control and readout

AiroBox is equipped with state-of-the-art sensors directly in the stage top incubator allowing to track and precisely control temperature, humidity, carbon dioxide and oxygen concentrations.

Ideal for super-resolution studies

We have engineered AiroBox with the high requirements of super resolution-microscopy in mind. Our cooling circuit is designed to enable sample cooling up to 20°C below room temperature without inducing any vibrations. Also, at elevated temperatures AiroBox features rock-stable mechanics.

Versatility and ease of use

AiroBox is compact and simple to setup. It consists of the control unit, the stage top, and an objective collar covering all functionalities. In combination with the intuitive user interface, it can be setup within just a few minutes on a microscope and be operated swiftly by non-experts. Being compatible with most microscope stages due to its modular design and customization options, AiroBox’s exchangeable sample inserts for multi-well plates, petri dishes, and many more allow for multi-purpose use.
