Deltavision OMX SR

SUPER-RESOLUTION MICROSCOPE

Background

Super-resolution microscopy allows the user to observe living and fixed fluorescent samples at  a resolution greater than a standard fluorescence microscope. Imaging at this resolution can reveal structural organisation inside a cell that can be otherwise masked. 

System Applications

The OMX SR is an inverted wide-field microscope. Equipped with three cameras the microscope enables true simultaneous imaging of three channels. Modalities available include 2D SIM, 3D SIM, TIRF SIM, ringTIRF , FRAP and DIC. Three colour simultaneous single particle tracking (SPT) and localisation is also possible using the ring-TIRF configuration. The system is fully equipped for live cell imaging.

System Specifications

Lasers lines: 405 nm, 488 nm, 561 nm and 639 nm

Objectives:  Olympus 60x Oil 1.5 NA TIRF UPLAPO, Olympus 60x 1.30 NA Silicone UPLANSApo

Cameras: 3 x sCMOS PCO Edge 4.2

Environmental control: temperature and gas, carbon dioxide and nitrogen (hypoxia studies)
