Microscope Imaging Service—Zeiss LSM 510 META l

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 LSM 510 META l-based confocal microscopy imaging services.

Name of the Instrument/Platform

Zeiss LSM 510 META l

MANUFACTURER:

Zeiss

Introduction

The Zeiss LSM 510 laser scanning confocal microscope is equipped with a 30mW 405nm-diode, a 25mW Argon laser (458, 477, 488, & 514 nm), a 1mW green (543 nm) and a 5mW red (633 nm) HeNe laser.
Confocal microscopy is ideal for imaging thick fluorescently labeled specimens thanks to the ability to collect thin optical sections with minimal background fluorescence from out-of-focus structures.
The Zeiss LSM is equipped with a Meta detector that can capture emissions ranging from 411-754 nm, in 10.7 nm bins across 32 channels. Using the Meta, multiple fluorescent labels with overlapping emissions can be separated using linear unmixing algorithms.

Summary

Laser scanning confocal microscope is ideal for imaging thick fluorescently labeled specimens thanks to the ability to collect thin optical sections with minimal background fluorescence from out-of-focus structures. The Zeiss LSM is equipped with a META detector that can separate numerous fluorescent labels with overlapping emissions.
