Properties

1. Resource Description

   * This confocal has 488 nm, 543 nm, and 633 nm laser lines to excite fluorophores with compatible excitation characteristics. Fluorescence emission is collected with 505-550 nm, 560-615 nm, and 650 nm filter sets, respectively, in independent channels. The microscope is also equipped with a fourth detector to collect light for differential interference contrast (DIC) imaging. * There are 10x, 20x, 40x, 60x, and 100x objective lenses available for use on this microscope. They are all capable of imaging using DIC, making it possible to do brightfield confocal imaging. * Motorized z-plane movement allows for optical sectioning through a sample. The EZ C1 confocal software can be used subsequently to reconstruct serial z-plane images into a 3D rendering.
