Confocal Microscope Imaging Service—Nikon A1R-STED Confocal Microscope with Stimulated Emission Depletion Detector (STED)

Confocal microscopy is an optical imaging technique that uses point-by-point illumination and spatial pinhole modulation to remove scattered light from the non-focal plane of the sample, allowing for improved optical resolution and visual contrast compared to traditional imaging methods. Creative Bioarray, the imaging experts, can provide you with Nikon A1R-STED Confocal Microscope with Stimulated Emission Depletion Detector (STED)-based confocal microscopy imaging services.

Name of the Instrument/Platform

Nikon A1R-STED Confocal Microscope with Stimulated Emission Depletion Detector (STED)

MANUFACTURER: Nikon

Introduction

Laser Platform: 1. 7 laser lines with solid state lasers: 405 nm, 445 nm, 488 nm, 514 nm, 561 nm 594 nm, 640 nm. 2. Nikon perfect focus system (PFS) is the solution to keep cells in focus over prolonged time-lapse imaging sessions. Pick the focal plane and PFS monitors the focus every 5ms to maintain focus indefinitely. 3. Accessories: Motorized XY stage and piezo Z stage for rapid sectioning. 4. 4×, 10×, 20× air objectives, 40× silicone, and 60× and 100× oil objectives live on stand. 20× multi-immersion objective is available upon request. 5. Stage top incubator for temperature, humidity, and CO2 atmospheric control.

Summary

The Nikon A1R confocal microscope is combined with a STED detector allowing imaging with a large field of view and high resolution.

Feature Highlights

1. High speed resonant scanner: Maximum frame rate can reach 720 frames per second. 2. Large field of view (25 mm) results in fewer total images required for large high-resolution image stitching. 3. 4 Detector ports are standard and allow simultaneous or sequential detection of up to four channels of fluorescence: 1) Two high sensitivity GaAsP detectors 2) Two standard PMT's

Applications

Samples up to several hundred microns thick (sample dependent). Live or fixed (temperature, humidity and CO2 available). Low magnification high resolution imaging as well as high magnification high resolution. FRAP/PA/PC capabilities.
