Confocal Laser Scanning Microscopy ZEISS LSM 800
with Airyscan Detector (Magdeburg, Germany)
The ZEISS LSM 800 Confocal Laser Scanning Microscope uses a laser as a light source. This microscope enables to make the optical sections thickness in the Z-axis of the sample (Z-stack). Moreover, the microscope is equipped with an AiryScan detector for improved resolution in 3D. The microscope allows to observe a few fluorescent markers at the same time in the sample and conduct the colocalization study with the possibility of exporting the graph and numerical data. It enables imaging of both fixed and live samples thanks to the chamber incubation, controlling temperature as well as levels of CO2 and O2.
