Optical microscopy, allows us to see and understand the microscopic world beyond our perception. Today, optical microscopy is at the heart of many scientific and technical fields, including life sciences, biology, materials science, nanotechnology, industrial inspection, medicine, and many more. CD BioSciences, the imaging experts, can provide you with optical microscopy imaging services based on Laser Microdissection.
This widefield microscope is equipped with:
1. 3 sets of filters for imaging (Blue/Green/Red)
2. a laser microdissection unit - dissection and recovery of cells or subcellular compartments,
3. optical tweezers - mechanical manipulation of cells or samples without contact by using an infra-red laser,
4. an incubator for live cell imaging (time lapse).

Microdissection allows one to select and isolate part of a sample and use it for further studies (RT-PCR, protein analysis, selection of live cells). Laser microdissection can also be used with live samples to study recovery after a cut, protein recruitment after photodamage… The system is paired with optical tweezer to manipulate samples.
