Confocal Microscope Imaging Service—Olympus FV3000 Confocal Microscope

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. CD BioSciences, the imaging experts, can provide you with Olympus FV3000 Confocal Microscope-based confocal microscopy imaging services.

Name of the Instrument/Platform

Olympus FV3000 Confocal Microscope

Introduction

The Olympus FV3000 Laser Scanning Microscope is a fully spectral microscope with a brand new TruSpectral Technology that combines high performance imaging capabilities with customisable software that is easy to use. Main features include: Fast and accurate imaging using a high-speed scanners, bright fluorescent imaging of even dim samples due to high-sensitivity detectors and improved observation reliability achieved by precise spectroscopy and newly developed time management system.

Feature Highlights

1. The FV3000 enables macro scale imaging from 1.25× while retaining capabilities of super resolution imaging at up to 150× magnification.
2. Silicon immersion objectives for accurate 3D imaging.
3. Resonant scanner to capture highly dynamic biological processes.
4. Multi-Dimensional Time-lapse with Z-drift compensator.
5. 3D Mosaic Imaging

Applications

The FLUOVIEW FV3000 series is designed to meet some of the most difficult challenges in modern science. Featuring the high sensitivity and speed required for live cell and tissue imaging, the FV3000 enables 2D-6D (x,y,z,t,λ,p) macro-to-micro imaging of cells, tissues, and small organisms. With an intuitive and adaptable user interface, the FV3000 supports complete workflows from image acquisition to processing and analysis. Particular attention has been paid to the needs of cell biology, cancer research, and stem cell research, and with two new upright configurations, the FV3000 is also poised to meet the needs of neuroscience, electrophysiology, and developmental biology.
