Olympus FV1000 Laser Scanning Confocal

Olympus FV 1000 Confocal

Olympus FV1000 Laser Scanning Confocal 

Equipped with a second, photokinetic scan head (405 nm laser line), two spectral scan emission detectors, and two high sensitivity (GaAsP) detectors. 

Laser lines:
  • 405
  • 488
  • 543
  • 633
Ideally Suited For:
  • Complex, multi-component structures in samples fixed for IIF
  • Whole mounts of small, thin, or optically transparent organs or organisms
  • Photo-bleaching, photo-activation, and photo-conversion
Not Suited For:
  • Weak fluorescence signals
  • Live cell imaging applications (most)
  • Rapid time-lapse imaging
