Target Group:
Confocal microscope users who are new or have limited experience with the LSM 710. This course is also useful for customers who would like a refresher in the basics. The course will allow you to develop a basic, working knowledge of both the hardware and software. Please note that this course will focus on our AIM software; however, if you are running a ZEN system, we will make adjustments to the course plan to include this software in the training.
Course Contents:
| • | Introduction to confocal imaging |
| • | Overview of confocal software |
| • | Configuring the system for data collection |
| • | Image Acquisition including Z-stacks |
| • | Colocalization |
| • | Timelapse Imaging |
| • | Spectral Imaging |
| • | System Care and Maintenance |
