Biological Imaging Service—Olympus FSX100 Microscope

Biological imaging is an important research tool for understanding tissue structure and elucidating the various physiological functions of living organisms. It uses light or electron microscopy to obtain direct images of the microstructure of biological cells and tissues, and the resulting images are analyzed to understand the various physiological processes of biological cells. CD BioSciences' Bioimaging Centre has dozens of devices and, more importantly, our expertise and experience are invaluable to the industries and clients we serve. We can provide Olympus FSX100 Microscope-based bioimaging services.

Summary

The Olympus FSX100 microscope is an inverted fluorescence, phase contrast, and bright field microscope with a color digital camera. There is no eye piece and all operations are controlled from a computer. The FSX100 is self contained and does not require a dark room.

In recent years, with the development of optical imaging technology, especially the introduction of digital imaging and computer image analysis, bioimaging has become an indispensable method in cell biology research. CD BioSciences' bioimaging laboratory is committed to providing state-of-the-art technical support to our customers. If you are interested, please do not hesitate to contact us.
