Confocal Microscope Imaging Service—Zeiss LSM880 AiryScan and LSM980 AiryScan

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 Zeiss LSM880 AiryScan and LSM980 AiryScan-based confocal microscopy imaging services.

Summary

The Zeiss LSM880and the LSM980 are a high-end fully motorized confocal scanning microscope. They are 34-channel confocal system on an inverted microscopes equipped with a 405 nm, 458 nm, 488 nm, 515 nm, 561 nm, 594 nm, and a 633 nm laser line (LSM880) or 405 nm, 445 nm, 488 nm, 514 nm, 561 nm, 594 nm and 639nm laser lines (LSM980) . Both setups feature 34 high-sensitive detection channels on the basis of the gallium arsenid phosphid (GaAsP) technology and the AiryScan module. The AiryScan module allow up to 1.7× better resolution (in all three dimensions: 120 nm in XY and 350 nm in z) than standard scanning confocal microscopes, higher sensitivity (4-8× higher SNR), higher scan speed (27 fpsat 480 × 480 pixels), and more gentle excitation (less photobleaching and phototoxicity). Further more, the Airy detectors can be used to image with 4× (and for the LSM980 also 8×) increased speed. The LSM980 is equipped with a piezo z-drive stage insert for fast z-stacks. Both setups are equipped w
