Flatbed scanners are frequently used for analyzing roots, placing the roots in water-filled trays for scanning. The resulting image can be analyzed using software to determine the length, diameter, and other traits of the roots. Flatbed scanners with a transparency unit are particularly well suited for analyzing roots. Epson flatbed scanners are the number one choice of root researchers worldwide for reliably analysing root morphological parameters. In line with our aim to provide a one-stop shop experience, Vienna Scientific is pleased to offer customers modified Epson scanners - ready for root imaging (spacers, root scanning trays).
