Leica SP8 (Advanced with FRAP)

The centre's Leica TCS SP8 confocal has been designed with optimal photon efficiency and high speed . This system has 4 detectors (2 GaAsP and 2 PMT) and a motorized xyz-stage. Objectives: 10x 0.4, 20x 0.75, 40x 1.3 (oil), 63x 1.4 (oil) laser lines: 7 laser lines (405, 458, 488, 496, 514, 561, and...

Zeiss LSM 900 with Airyscan 2

ZeissLSM900Airy2.jpg The Zeiss LSM 900 for confocal 4D imaging has been designed with high sensitivity and spectral flexibility. The Airyscan 2 with its Multiplex mode allows to profit from smart detection schemes and parallel (=faster) pixel acquisition. This system has 2 independent sensitive...

Training Material

In order to book and use the CAIC confocal microscopes a user must complete and induction. It will be a combination of online and very short in-person training. Below you will find links to helpful documents for the online part. CAIC induction document for Leica SP8 microscopes Basic training...
