===== Microscope overview =====

The Nikon-HTM/HCS microscope is a fully automated microscope capable of high-throughput imaging and screening of samples (eg, Ibidi chamber slides or well-plates); with the help of fully programmable and customizable acquisition protocols. 

The system is equipped with a CoolLED fluorescence illuminator with 4 excitation bands, and an Andor Zyla 4.2 sCMOS camera with 4.0 MPixels with a large field of view capable of maximum of 100 FPS at full frame (2048x2048). 

The optics available include fluorescence filters and brightfield, including DIC (for several magnifications) and phase-contrast (40x LWD only).


===== LED lines =====

This system is equipped with a CoolLED fluorescence illuminator with 4 excitation lines:
  * 380 nm - E.g. DAPI
  * 470 nm - E.g. FITC
  * 550 nm - E.g. TRITC
  * 635 nm - E.g. Cy5
