Zeiss AxioObserver 7 with Aurox Clarity LFC
What is it? A motorised widefield fluorescence microscope featuring a fast and sensitive sCMOS camera and Aurox Clarity laser-free spinning disk unit for fast optical sectioning.
Manufacturer: Carl Zeiss, Aurox
Model Name: Axio Observer 7, Aurox Clarity LFC
Applications Widefield epifluorescence, Transmitted light imaging (brightfield, phase contrast, DIC), Spinning disk confocal imaging, long-term live-cell imaging
Instrument Overview: This microscope features a fast and sensitive sCMOS camera and Aurox Clarity add-on allowing fast optical sectioning using a laser-free (therefore N3 license free!) spinning disk. The motorised stage allows multi-position time-lapse imaging or tile scans of large samples; hardware autofocus ensures continuously stable focusing throughout time-lapse acquisition of arbitrary duration. The microscope is housed in a heated enclosure.
