Nikon-Confocal-3277A

Nikon-Confocal-3277A

The Nikon A1R laser scanning confocal microscope fitted with Optisplit Bypass and Hamamatsu Flash 4 digital camera will have the same but much improved capabilities as the Olympus IX81 Inverted microscope. It also has a high-definition resonant scanner and a galvano scanner to capture fluorescence images of cells and structures in live animal preparations.

Nikon-Multiphoton-3277B

Nikon-Multiphoton-3277B

The multiphoton upright microscope with imaging capture computer can be used to image fluorescent images but in deeper tissues. Cells and tissues can be imaged at a greater depth than is currently possible with the inverted microscopes.
