DeltaVision Elite
|
DeltaVision Elite Deconvolution/TIRF
The DeltaVision is a 3-D deconvolution system with 488 and 561nm lasers for TIRF (total internal reflection microscopy). Features include motorized x-y stage, environmental chamber, and fluorescence filters for DAPI, CFP, GFP, YFP, dsRed, mCherry and Cy5. The system excels at imaging "small, dim, live" samples.

Zeiss AxioObserver
|
Zeiss AxioObserver Fluorescence
This inverted microscope is equipped with phase contrast, standard fluorescence filters (DAPI, GFP, DsRed, CFP, YFP), and an AxioCam MRm monochrome camera. Suitable for imaging of bacteria and thin fluorescently labeled samples. Two long-working distances lenses (20, 40x) and a 96-well plate stage adapter allows for imaging of cells in culture.
