Cell Imaging Service—Olympus DSU Wide-Field Spinning Disk Confocal Microscope

As cell research advances, so does the need for cell imaging technology. Today's researchers need a continuous flow of dynamic, long-term experiments on cell migration, interactions, and responses to environmental disturbances that cannot be met by conventional microscopes that can only observe stationary cells. Creative Bioarray' Olympus DSU Wide-Field Spinning Disk Confocal Microscope-based live cell imaging technology can meet your stringent experimental needs.

Name of the Instrument/Platform

Olympus DSU Wide-Field Spinning Disk Confocal Microscope

Introduction

This system is good for: 1. Time lapse of fast events such as protein translocation. 2. Fixed or living samples 3. Subcellular imaging 4. DAPI, FITC, Alexa 488, TEXAS red, Alexa 594, Alexa 647, Cy5 and similar indicators. 5. Calcium imaging using fura 2 (non-confocal). 6. Dual emission for FRET indicators (CFP-YFP). This system is not good for: Very high resolution (less than 0.5 micron resolution) Function of Instrument This system is a relatively high-speed, medium sensitivity confocal.

Summary

The excitation source is a Prior Lumen pro 220 mercury halide wideband light source. A physiological incubation chamber can be used for live-cell imaging. The detector is a cooled sCMOS camera. It is ideal for capturing high-speed events such as calcium transients, rapid translocation events, and transient membrane potential changes. It is also suitable for fixed samples.
