Abstract: A filter wheel assembly includes a filter wheel and an optical assembly. The filter wheel includes a plurality of viewing openings. The optical assembly includes an optical element secured within an aperture of a housing. The optical assembly is securable to the filter wheel at a viewing opening by a magnetic force. An optical apparatus includes an optical assembly receiver and first and second optical assemblies. The first optical assembly is securable to the optical assembly receiver and the second optical assembly is securable to the first optical assembly by a magnetic force to align the optical assembly receiver and the optical assemblies.

Abstract: A slide holder assembly and method for use in high content screening of a comet assay. The slide holder assembly has an inside surface and is configured to receive a slide holding a plurality of biological cells on a top surface thereof. When the slide is secured within the slide holder assembly, the inside surface of the slide holder assembly and the top surface of the slide combine to form a cavity having an open top end. The cavity is watertight and configured to hold a liquid therein. A method of performing a comet assay using a slide disposed within a slide holder assembly. The method includes performing encapsulation, lysis, electrophoresis, staining, and imaging of cells on the slide while the slide remains secured within the slide holder assembly.
