The LSM 7 MP Laser Scanning Microscope from Carl Zeiss is tailored to the needs of multiphoton microscopy.
It features excellent flexibility, a compact design and ease of use.
It generates high resolution microscopic images for a range of experiments in biomedical and basic research.
The two scanners allow lasers with different wavelengths to be utilised sequentially or simultaneously for specimen imaging and manipulation.
The range of detectors, their filter equipment and a line of microscope accessories allow the microscope system to be customised.
The LSM 7 MP can record high resolution images of fluorescent structures.
The application fields extend from high resolution 3D-imaging in long-term observations of development processes and functional imaging in conjunction with simultaneous photo-manipulation, right up to imaging in combination with electrophysiological measuring methods.
It can be quickly set up and the ZEN - Efficient Navigation software makes it user-friendly.
The system features optimised transmission of the scan module for excitation light up to 1100nm.
The system uses sensitive non-descanned detectors and the special version of a GaAsP non-descanned detector with signal outcoupling directly above the objective lens; features taken from the LSM 710 NLO.
The LSM 7 MP, in combination with the Axio Examiner upright microscope stand and the Axiocam camera, can perform highly specialised multiphoton microscopy applications.
