PerkinElmer’s Opera® High Content Screening System continues to be the world’s most proven confocal microplate imaging solution for high throughput High Content Screening. Having served high content screeners for over 10 years, the Opera system has now been replaced by the new Opera Phenix™ High Content Screening System. Opera Phenix provides more speed and sensitivity than ever with its unique, crosstalk-minimizing Synchrony™ Optics, making it ideal for phenotypic screening and working with complex disease models.

Known for its speed and breathtaking image quality, the Opera system now benefits from researcher-friendly analysis software that helps you turn image data into statistically relevant information more quickly than ever before. Versatile, scalable and easily automatable, the system is well-suited for both primary and secondary screening campaigns.
