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 Nikon STORM (Inverted).

Localisation imaging is the final super resolution microscope platform in our suite. Imaging with this modality exploits the photophysical behaviour of fluorophores to Our N-STORM system is built on an inverted Ti-E microscope, fitted with four solid state lasers (405 nm, 488 nm, 561 nm and 640 nm) and a Hamamatsu OCRA FLASH 4 sCMOS camera, for high speed acquisition. C-STORM imaging can be performed on this platform, as well as the novel N-STORM imaging modality, where tandem dye pairs are used conjugated to samples utilising the high performance of Alexafluor 647 fluorescent dye.
The system is also equipped with Tokai Hit stage top incubator for live cell imaging, and Perfect Focus System (PFS) to prevent drift.
