Fluorescent imaging

The Apotome2 makes imaging easy. The images are crisp and clean. Converting the images to tiff or jpeg is really easy. I like that I can make final adjustments to the contrast and brightness to get the best image possible.

I wouldn't say easy to use but it does gather publication quality images.

Indispensable for when you want a precision photomicrography with different levels in a single plane!

Apotome is fairly easy to use and easy to set up. It provides excellent resolution in making stacks of thin slices stained with fluorescent proteins.

Apotome is great for doing stacks but a confocal is much easier to use.

Create optical sections of your fluorescent samples – free of scattered light. With structured illumination, you know that only the focal plane appears in your image: ApoTome.2 recognizes the magnification and moves the appropriate grid into the beampath.

The system then calculates your optical section from three images with different grid positions without time lag. It’s a totally reliable way to prevent scattered out-of-focus light, even in your thicker specimens.

Yet your system remains just as easy to operate as always. You get images with high contrast in the best possible resolution – simply brilliant optical sections.

New Light Source & Slider Module for Fluorescence Microscopy

Watch this interview at ASCB 2010 to learn more about new technology from Carl Zeiss. The ApoTome.2 uses structured illumination to produce optical sections without the need for expensive equipment such as lasers. The Colibri.2 LED Light Source for live cell imaging eliminates UV bleedthrough and dramatically reduces phototoxicity compared to traditional Hg or Xe light sources. The LED technology allows precise and ultra fast intensity control individually per channel and exposure.
