 +===== Microscope overview =====
 +
 +The Zeiss Axiovert 200M is a fully motorized inverted //widefield fluorescence microscope//​ ideal for live-cell imaging applications. It is equipped with a small stage incubator for temperature control and CO2 supply. Using the Metamorph software you can control the motorized filters, shutters and stage to simultaneously set up multi-color time-lapse imaging experiments in multiple stage positions. Its sensitive cooled CCD camera (Photometrics Coolsnap HQ CCD) allows you to capture weak fluorescent signals and minimize photobleaching/​photodamage in light sensitive samples. You can also perform Z-stack acquisition and use [[https://​huygens.i3s.up.pt/​login.php|PPBI Huygens RM]] [[http://​micro.magnet.fsu.edu/​primer/​digitalimaging/​deconvolution/​deconvolutionhome.html|deconvolution]] server to significantly improve image resolution even in thick samples. If you are performing long time-lapse experiments in live samples (aqueous media) and need hardware focus control, check the [[zeiss_cell_observer|Zeiss Cell Observer]] with Definite Focus. If don't want to use deconvolution,​ check out one of the confocal systems such as the point scanners [[zeiss_lsm_710|Zeiss LSM 710]] and [[zeiss_lsm_880|Zeiss LSM 880]] or the spinning disks [[3i_marianas_sdc|3i Marianas SDC]] and [[zeiss_cell_observer_sd|Zeiss Cell Observer SD]]. If your personal computer cannot handle all the data you collected, check out the [[big_guy|Big Guy]] or [[colossus|Colossus]]. If you have FISH or other fixed fluorescence slides try the [[leica_dm5000b|Leica DM5000B]] instead.

 +===== Booking Rules =====
 +The Axiovert 200M booking is divided in three daily slots:
 +|  9:00 to 13:00  |  13:00 to 17:00  |  17:00 to 21:00  |
 +
 +  - A **user** can book at maximum **2 sessions per week**
 +  - Each **session must fit inside one of the three daily slots** (i.e. a session booked from 11:00 to 14:00 counts as 2 sessions)
 +  - The above rules do not apply for **weekends** and for work days **before 9:00** and **after 21:00**
 +  - The above rules do not apply for sessions booked on the very same day or **24 hours ahead**
 +  - Exceptions to these rules require **approval from [[joserino@medicina.ulisboa.pt|José Rino]]**.

 +  * Turn on the fluorescent light power source
 +{{halide_710.jpg?​80|}}
 +  * Turn on the Prior stage controller ​
 +{{ax_prior_on.jpg?​100|}}
 +  * Turn on the microscope
 +{{ax_mic_on.jpg?​100|}}
 +  * Turn on the CCD camera
 +{{ax_cam_on.jpg?​100|}}
 +  * Turn on the computer
 +  * Log in to Windows (Bioimaging User)
 +  * Start the Metamorph software
 +  * If the software doesn'​t detect the camera, power cycle the camera and try again
 +===== Microscope Turn Off procedures =====
 +  * Turn off the computer.
 +  * Turn off the camera.
 +  * If you used any __immersion oil in the objectives, clean them up__.
 +  * Turn off the microscope stage controller.
 +  * Turn off the microscope.
 +  * If there'​s __another user__ for this microscope in the __next hour__ leave the mercury __lamp power source on, else turn it off__. ​
 +  * Be extra careful in weekends and at the end of the day to make sure that the mercury lamp is not going to be turned on for an excessive time.
