For this, they are using a novel two-photon fluorescence microscope, aided by a 30 thousand euro ZonMW grant. Any scientific instrument, however brilliant, can be improved. Take, for example, the ...

SpectraPhysics InSight X3 dual laser, including a 680-1300 nm tunable laser and a fixed 1045 nm laser.

While confocal microscopy uses a pinhole to reject out-of-focus light to generate the optical section, a multi-photon (or 2-photon) microscope uses a pulsed infrared laser to stimulate fluorescence ...

The Movable Objective Microscope ® (MOM ®) is a two-photon microscope capable of imaging deep within living specimens when combined with a Ti:Sapphire Laser. The MOM design is unique in ...

A miniature head-mounted two-photon microscope small enough for a rat to carry allows researchers to visualize neuronal signaling while the animal freely interacts with its environment. It is ...

In the last decade, two techniques have revolutionized fluorescence microscopy: the development of genetically encoded fluorophores, such as GFP 5,6 and the invention of two-photon microscopy 7.

The Microscopy Core includes four confocal microscopes and one two-photon microscopy suite. The confocal microscopes include a ZEISS 510 system with three lasers (488, 543, and 633 nm), a Leica SP8 ...
