Instrument

Equipment: Leica two-photon upright microscope (Stellaris 8 DIVE)

Room:1018

     Description:Combining the technology of laser scanning confocal microscopy and two-photon excitation technology, Stellaris 8 DIVE can penetrate deep inside the tissue and excitation of fluorescent molecules. The long wavelength can reduce the damage of the laser on the organism, reduce phototoxicity, as well as ensure high spatial resolution (imaging depth can exceed 1mm) at the same time. It is equipped with a 4TUNE spectral detector, which can freely adjust the detection band in the range of 380-800nm, and combined with an adjustable spectral laser, it can perform multi-color imaging of samples. The detector has a photon counting function, combined with a pulsed laser can be fluorescence lifetime imaging of the sample, equipped with a TauSense module can be split by lifetime information can be added to the sample another dimension of information. The device can also be used alone with single photon imaging capabilities, which are essentially the same as the platform Leica SP8.

      Scope of application: The system's higher imaging depth and low phototoxicity are suitable for long-time real-time imaging of live animals; the principle feature that two-photon can only excite the focal plane signal allows for more accurate photoactivation, photobleaching and other light stimulation experiments; its free spectral adjustment and adjustable wavelength laser are equipped for imaging of multiple standard samples. Equipped with TauSens module, combined with the fluorescence lifetime characteristics of the dye, fluorescence lifetime imaging can be performed.
