Confocal microscopy enables acquisition of 2D or 3D fluorescence images as well as time-lapse images by collecting emission light only from the focus of a laser beam. Excitation light generates fluorescence throughout the specimen and out-of-focus light is eliminated by a pinhole.
Advantages: Confocal microscopy enables acquisition of 2D or 3D fluorescence images as well as time-lapse images by collecting emission light only from the focus of a laser beam.
Advantages: Confocal microscopy enables acquisition of 2D or 3D fluorescence images as well as time-lapse images by collecting emission light only from the focus of a laser beam.
Advantages: Setup is available for extracting cells or tissue regions. Sample preparation consists of fixed or frozen tissue sections placed on specialized microscope slides.
Advantages: Multiphoton microscopy (also called non-linear laser scanning microscopy) utilizes simultaneous absorption of two or more photons for excitation of a fluorescent label.
Advantages: This laser-based pipette puller is good for multistep programmable pipette pulling from both soft and hard glass. These pipettes can be used for electrophysiology and viral injections.
Advantages: This vibratome is good for cutting agarose-embedded tissue slices from ~50 μm to ~400 μm thickness. Fixed and living tissue can be cut in the designated chambers. The vibratome uses disposable razor blades.
