Biological Imaging Service—Zeiss 880 Confocal Microscope with Airyscan Fast

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 Zeiss 880 Confocal Microscope with Airyscan Fast-based bioimaging services.

Name of the Instrument/Platform

Zeiss 880 Confocal Microscope with Airyscan Fast

MANUFACTURER:
Zeiss

Introduction

1. Stand: inverted, AxioObserver. Z1
2. Stage: motorized stage for 3D stack and multi-point image acquisition; sample holder available to accept slides, petri-dishes, and multi-well plates
3. Fluorescent filters available:
—for direct observation through eyepieces: DAPI, GFP, Rhodamine and mCherry
—for confocal operation:
4. We have the "2+1" configuration which has 1 super-cooled multi-alkali, 1 standard multi-alkali and 1 GaAsP detector. These detectors are all spectral. The Airy detector can also be used in combination with these detectors to add a 4th channel that is filter based.
5. —for Airyscan operation:
1) BP 420-480 + BP 495-550
2) BP 495-550 + LP570
3) BP 570-620 +LP645
4) BP 465-505 +LP 525
5) BP420-480+LP 605
6. Transmitted light modes: bright-field
7. Laser lines: 405, Argon (458, 488, and 514) and HeNe (561, 594 and 633)
8. Objectives:
1) 10×/0.45 NA (wd-2.0 mm)
2) 20×/0.4 NA, corr LD (wd-8.4 mm)
3) 20×/0.8 NA (wd-0.55 mm)
4) 40×/0.95 NA corr (wd-0.25 mm)
5) 63×/1.

Summary

Best suited for thick (10-150 microns) samples mounted on a standard microscope slide with a coverslip or in a petri-dish or multi-well plate. Non-labeled and fluorescently-labeled samples may be used. Time-course experiments on thick specimens requiring a temperature or CO2-controlled environment or both.
