Why Aurox
EXPERTISE AND EXPERIENCE
Aurox, the Laser Free Confocal Imaging Company, has extensive experience in the design, manufacturing and distribution of innovative confocal imaging instruments used by scientists operating in the fields of Life, Medical and Materials Sciences.
Aurox was founded in 2004 by four renowned scientists who worked in the Scanning Optical Microscopy group at the University of Oxford, with over 100 years of confocal microscopy experience between them. Between 2004 and 2017 Aurox developed novel confocal imaging systems which were sold through their OEM partners servicing numerous marketplaces. From 2017 Aurox has focused mainly on the field of Life Science Research.
All Aurox products are based on their patented Laser Free Confocal Imaging capabilities which ensures lower photo-bleaching and reduced photo-toxicity to ensure the viability of delicate specimens. These systems do not have the restrictions associated with the more complicated laser based systems making them less expensive to purchase and far easier to install and support.
There are currently over 400 Aurox configured Laser Free Confocal systems installed worldwide.

Client Testimonials
"We got an unbeatable system price-wise, and the quality of the images is excellent! We are also able to acquire images with superresolution with our system, which is a great experimental advantage."
Giessen University, Germany
"We imaged a Drosophila mid-gut to exemplify how fast large mosaics can be taken with the Aurox Clarity. 4-channels, 4 z-levels and 50 tiles, imaged in 8 mins."
Institute of Biotechnology, University of Helsinki
"While the Visionary interface initially looked very different to anything that we have worked with previously, it proved to be very intuitive to use, easy to learn and extremely sleek in operation."
University of Reading, UK
"The Visionary interface is easy to learn with colour-coded steps that guide the user to a quick hardware set up and fast imaging acquisition."
BALM, University of Birmingham, UK
"This technology allows a fast multicolour image acquisition at high speed and in multiple dimensions. It is particularly well suited for us to investigate the interaction between nanoparticles and living cells, including dendritic and cancer cells."
Ghent University, Belgium
"The Aurox system has two main features that are advantageous for us. A narrow depth of field compared with widefield fluorescence and fast image acquisition."
Okinawa Institute of Science and Technology, Japan
