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 Olympus BX51-Research Grade Optical Microscope DIC, Phase, DF, BF.
The microscope is fitted with Soft Imaging System's Colorview III camera and AnalySIS Life Sciences software. The Colorview III camera can record 24-bit colour images at resolutions up to 2576 × 1932 pixels and 16-bit monochrome images at resolutions up to 1288 × 966 pixels. The AnalySIS software fully controls and configures the Colorview III camera and has features that simplify the recording of images. These features include a system for sequentially recording fluorescence images from different fluorophores without the need to adjust exposure times thereby reducing the time to record the images and minimising photo-bleaching. The AnalySIS software can be used to perform complex image analysis on captured images and is fully compatible with the other AnalySIS systems at Adelaide Microscopy.
The Olympus BX51 upright optical microscope at Adelaide Microscopy features 4×, 10×, 20×, 40×, 63× (oil) and 100× (oil) lenses. The capabilities of the BX51 include Nomarski differential interference contrast (DIC), fluorescence, dark-field and polarization microscopy.
Five long-pass filters are available for fluorescence microscopy. These filters and examples of the fluorophores for which they can be used are:
1. Ultra-violet (UV): DAPI
2. Blue-violet (BV): Lucifer yellow
3. Intermediate blue (IB): GFP, EGFP, FITC, Alexa 488
4. Intermediate green (IG): CY3, DS red, TRITC, RITC
5. CY5: CY5
