NBT at ISM 2026 in Tel Aviv

NBT joined the Israel Society for Microscopy (ISM) 2026 meeting at Expo Tel Aviv this week. We brought two products with us: ibidi chambers and slides for cell culture and microscopy, and the RWD RFLSI-ZW Laser Speckle Contrast Imaging System for real-time microcirculation monitoring.

ibidi - cells in focus

The ibidi line covers micro-engineered chambers, slides, and dishes for cell culture and live-cell microscopy. The range runs from straightforward cell growth and immunofluorescence assays in μ-Slides to flow-based experiments in μ-Slides I Luer and μ-Slides VI^0.4, plus dedicated formats for chemotaxis, 3D culture, and angiogenesis studies. The geometry and the optical-grade bottom give homogeneous cell distribution, which is where conventional plates fall short in imaging-heavy workflows.

At the booth, attendees were able to handle the chambers directly and discuss how they fit into ongoing imaging projects.

RWD RFLSI-ZW Laser Speckle Contrast Imaging

The RFLSI-ZW from RWD is a full-field laser speckle contrast imaging system that monitors and records blood flow in tissues and organs in real time, without contact and without contrast agents. With an improved optical design and a refined image-processing algorithm, the system gives a larger imaging field, full-frame HD image and video output, and access to raw data for downstream analysis.

Typical applications include:

• Cerebral blood perfusion monitoring
• MCAO stroke model assessment
• TBI and SCI research
• Hind-limb ischemia studies
• Diabetic foot and skin burn/skin flap perfusion
• Tumor microvasculature imaging

Visitors at the booth tested the system live, putting a hand under it and watching perfusion maps update in real time, with flux, intensity, and color channels visualised side by side.

Thanks for stopping by

Big thanks to everyone who came by the booth, asked thoughtful questions, and shared what they're working on. If we didn't get a chance to follow up at the event, or you'd like a deeper conversation about how ibidi or the RFLSI-ZW could fit into your lab, get in touch with us and we'll set up a call.
