Widefield Fluorescence Microscopes

The Eclipse TiE Microscope (Nikon Instruments) widefield fluorescence microscope is a workhorse within the facility allowing for high quality phase, chromophore and fluorescence assessments of cell lines, and tissue in a wide variety of vessels. Often this is used to more cheaply optimise research approaches prior to moving these projects onto more expensive and complex technologies such as confocal microscopy.
