-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.+{{  :​widefield_lightpath.png?​0x300}}The Zeiss Axiovert 200M is a fully motorized inverted //widefield fluorescence microscope//​ ideal for live-cell imaging applications.
