Demonstrations of its latest microscopes, plus two workshops on fluorescence lifetime imaging and the transition from film to digital, at the London exhibition in July
As well as exhibiting its very latest microscopes at MicroScience 2002, Nikon UK will be holding two key workshops: 'Fluorescence lifetime as a contrast method in imaging', presented by Peter Drent and Maarten Balzar on Tuesday 9 July, and 'From silver to silicon', presented by Simon Denham on Wednesday 10 July.
This will centre on the transition from traditional film based imaging to digital imaging in microscopy.
Among the microscopes on show, Nikon will be profiling the very latest confocal microscopy system - the C1 - with the world's smallest and lightest scanning head.
The C1 supports diverse imaging techniques including, simultaneous three-channel fluorescence plus diascopic DIC, time-lapse recording and spatial analysis.
Visitors will also be able to see the new Eclipse TE2000-E, the top of the range Eclipse TE2000 model with Z-axis linear encoder.
This microscope, with five output ports offers multiple imaging opportunities and provides a workstation environment that would normally require several separate microscope systems.
The Eclipse TE2000E is the perfect solution for advanced research applications that require 3-D image capture such as confocal microscopy and deconvolution processing.
Other Eclipse TE2000 series inverted microscopes will also be on show and will provide a platform for TIRFM (Total Internal Reflection Fluorescence Microscope), the DN100 digital networking camera and EclipseNet software for image management, Coolpix digital cameras, the Lucia image analysis system, and Lambert Instruments's low light imaging system.
Nikon is on stand I5 at MicroScience, being held at London's Excel centre, 9-11 July 2002.
