Product Introduction

Assessing seed quality is essential for maximizing seed germination potential and improving yield. Traditionally, seed quality has been evaluated using testing methods that require seeds to be destroyed or rendered unusable during the process. These methods can also be slow, costly, and wasteful.

The XSEED® imaging system combines high-resolution X-ray imaging capabilities with software designed for seed and agricultural analysis, streamlining seed quality control and advancing agricultural research.

From evaluating seed viability to helping predict germination potential, XSEED provides researchers and seed producers with reliable, high-resolution imaging technology for faster and non-destructive seed quality determination.

Product Advantages

Optimized Quality Assessment: Evaluate embryo development and endosperm integrity to quickly determine seed quality and viability before germination.

Time and Budget Savings: Detect abnormalities and reveal infections before significant seed or plant loss occurs.

Seed Preservation: Examine the internal morphology of fully intact seeds through non-destructive analysis.

Increased Productivity: Assess seeds faster than traditional testing methods such as tetrazolium chloride or germination using instant X-ray imaging and intuitive software.

Simplified Workflow: Field-ready testing; install XSEED in the laboratory with only a standard power supply for maximum efficiency.

Applications

Seed Viability Testing: Streamline batch analysis and rapidly identify viable seeds to optimize germination rates.

Quality Control in Seed Production: Detect deformities, voids, and internal cracks in seeds and grains.

Agricultural Research and Plant Breeding: Enhance phenotypic selection and crop improvement efforts.

Plant Protection and Restoration: Preserve rare or valuable seeds while ensuring seedling health.
