(LSI3-TIRF) OLYMPUS CELLl^TIRF – MOTORIZED MULTICOLOR MULTICHANNEL TIRF IMAGING SYSTEM

Features:

  • Olympus cell^TIRF system based on Olympus IX83 automated inverted microscope.
  • Cell^TIRF illuminator enable motorized control of TIRF angles, precise adjustment of incident angle and software calculation of penetration depth for different wavelengths.
  • Built on MetaMorph software platform.
  • Three diode-pumped solid-state laser lines – 405nm, 491 nm and 561 nm with simultaneous excitation of two desired lines. Integrated Point FRAP optics for 405nm laser line. Filter sets for epifluorescence – DAPI, GFP and RFP
  • Platform for live cell imaging, full enclosure for temperature control and humidity incubator; no CO2 [can be added on request]
  • Three TIRF objectives – planApo 60X, NA 1.45; UApoN 100X, NA 1.49, WD 0.09mm, Correction collar; and UApoN 150X, NA 1.45, WD 0.07mm, Correction collar
  • Two high performance Photometrics Evolve 512*512 pixels EMCCD cameras equipped with DC2 emission splitting system, for fast acquisition of two spectrally distinct images simultaneously. Acquisition speeds of 33 frames/sec in 512*512 format, 66 frames/sec in 256*256 format and up to 100 frames/sec in smaller formats.
  • Ideal for high speed single molecule imaging and membrane research.
