ZEISS Apotome 3

Create optical sections of your fluorescent samples - with structured Illumination, removal of out-of-focus light becomes simple and efficient, allowing you to fully focus on your research. ZEISS Apotome 3 recognizes the magnification and moves the appropriate grid into the beampath. The system then calculates your optical section from a number of images with different grid positions. It’s a totally reliable way to remove out-of-focus light, even in thicker specimens. Yet your system remains just as easy to operate as always. You get images with high contrast in the best possible resolution – simply brilliant optical sections.

Main features

Brilliant Optical Sections: Apotome 3 comes with three grids of different geometries, giving you the best resolution no matter which magnification you choose.
Free Choice of Light Source and Dyes: Apotome 3 adapts to your fluorophores and lights source. So you stay flexible when your experiments evolve in complexity and requirements.
More Structural Information: Your created images are improved even more by deconvolution, using a patented algorithm for structured illumination. Better recognize important structures of your examined objects.

Application

Living Cells, Organisms, Uniquely designed for petrographic optical detection analysis.

Laser Microdissection and Optical Tweezers

Laser Microdissection is the contamination-free method for separating and collecting cells of interest out of tissue samples or cell cultures. The isolated pure cell populations are the ideal starting point for specific and meaningful results in your molecular analysis.

Main features

A system that completes the step from laser-microdissection to integrated imaging workstation.
Performing LCM even from standard glass slides, e.g. archived material, with ZEISS-patented sample capture technology.
Extendibility – add digital cameras from the AxioCam camera range for fluorescence, bright field, multi-channel fluorescence and extended focus.
Ability to integrate additional components into MicroBeam and create simple workflows, whether for individual experiments or automation with flexible collectors.
Calibration routines that allow you to easily adjust MicroBeam for laser parameters appropriate to your chosen specimen.

Application

Suitable for laser microdissection and analysis for DNA, RNA and protein isolation — whether from archive material or live cells.
Applicable to cryosections, FFPE (formalin fixed and paraffin embedded) tissue.

ZEISS Correlative Cryo Workflow

Cryogenic microscopy allows the examination of cellular structures in their near-to-native state, as the ultrastructure of cells and tissues can be preserved free of artifacts and cellular processes are stopped instantaneously. 

ZEISS Correlative Cryo Workflow connects widefield, laser scanning, and focused ion beam scanning electron microscopy in a seamless and easy-to-use procedure. The solution provides hardware and software optimized for the needs of correlative cryogenic workflows, from localization of fluorescent macromolecules to high-contrast volume imaging and on-grid lamella thinning for cryo electron tomography.

Main features

Seamless cryogenic workflow across multiple modalities
Sample protection against devitrification and ice contamination
High-resolution fluorescence imaging
High-contrast volume imaging and 3D reconstruction
Targeted on-grid lamella thinning for cryo TEM applications
Multipurpose use for cryogenic and room temperature applications

Application
