Optical Microscope Imaging Service—Olympus TIRF 3-Line

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 TIRF 3-Line.

DualView
Simultaneous acquisition of two emission channels via DualView DV2 from Photometrics
1. Each channel is projected onto one quadrant of the camera
2. C

Summary

This setup combines total internal reflection fluorescence microscopy (TIRFM) with powerful lasers and a highly sensitive electron multiplying CCD camera to enable super-resolution microscopy such as FPALM and STORM. By using a DualView, simultaneous multicolor imaging is easily accomplished. This allows for co-localization and co-locomotion studies of single molecules with high spatial resolution.
