| ===== Microscope overview ===== | ===== Microscope overview ===== | ||
| The Zeiss Cell Observer is a fully motorized inverted //widefield fluorescence microscope// ideal for live-cell imaging applications. It is equipped with a large cage incubator and a small stage incubator for temperature control and CO2 supply and with Definite Focus for hardware focus control during long time-lapse acquisitions. Using the ZEN 2 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 Axiocam 506m camera allows you to capture weak fluorescent signals and minimize photobleaching/photodamage in light sensitive samples. You can also perform Z-stack acquisition and use our [[http://micro.magnet.fsu.edu/primer/digitalimaging/deconvolution/deconvolutionhome.html|deconvolution]] server [[brainstorm|Brainstorm]] to significantly improve image resolution even in thick samples. If don't want to use deconvolution, check out one of the confocal systems such as the [[zeiss_lsm_710|Zeiss LSM 710]], the [[zeiss_lsm_880|Zeiss LSM 880]] or the [[3i_marianas_sdc|3i Marianas SDC]] spinning disk. 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. | The Zeiss Cell Observer is a fully motorized inverted //widefield fluorescence microscope// ideal for live-cell imaging applications.
