Zeiss ELYRA PS.1 + LSM 780
What is it? A setup combining the ELYRA system (SIM, PALM and TIRF) with a LSM 780 laser scanning confocal microscope.
Manufacturer: Carl Zeiss
Model Name: ELYRA PS.1 and LSM 780
Applications Structured illumination microscopy (SIM) in 3D, Single molecule localization microscopy (PALM, STORM, PAINT, …), Single particle tracking (SPT) and fluorescence correlation spectroscopy (FCS), Total internal reflection fluorescence (TIRF) microscopy and Hi-Lo mode imaging, Laser scanning confocal imaging, Fluorescence spectral imaging, Fluorescence recovery after photobleaching (FRAP)
Instrument Overview: This setup combines the ELYRA system (SIM, PALM and TIRF) with a LSM 780 laser scanning confocal microscope. Besides the super-resolution techniques for which ELYRA is primarily designed, ELYRA’s high end cameras can be used for widefield imaging applications requiring high sensitivity of detection such as single molecule tracking. The motorised stage allows multi-position time-lapse imaging or tile scans of large samples. A stage-top incubator is available upon request.
