Widefield Microscopes

Upright and Inverted

Widefield microscopes are available in different versions. Choose an upright microscope if your task is to analyze zebrafish embryos, stained tissue selections or brain slices. For tissue culture and quick assessments in routine research, the inverted microscope might be the better choice.

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.

Optical Tweezers are also a contact-free method that uses a highly focused laser beam to manipulate and sort cells in suspension, for example bacteria.

Super-resolution Microscopy

ZEISS Elyra 7 with Lattice SIM

Understanding the structure of a biological entity – be it a macromolecule, an organelle, a cell, or an organism – is key to understanding its function. For rigid structures, only spatial resolution matters, but for dynamic structures, higher acquisition speed and low-light conditions become inescapable necessities to achieve the required temporal resolution while also protecting the living samples.
