LSM 800 with Airyscan1
Imaging Equipment
LSM 800 is an inverted confocal setup equipped with 4 lasers (405 nm, 488 nm, 561 nm, 640nm) and Airyscan for sub-diffraction resolution to 140 nm. The microscope has 2 confocal detectors and a highly sensitive GaAsP detector, each of the detector’s wavelengths is tunable per nanometer. The stage-top live cell chamber, the motorized stage, advanced tiling module, photo-bleaching module enables the multi-dimensional (multi-channel, multi-position, time-lapse) live cell imaging, photo-manipulation and big tissue tile scanning. Applications:
- XY 2D / Z-stack 3D imaging, DIC/Phase contrast
- Live cell imaging
- Time-lapse confocal microscopy
- Tile scanning & stitch; multiple position imaging
- Fluorescence recover after photobleaching (FRAP)
Standard Operation Protocol – Carl Zeiss LSM800
