Opening day for Lightsheet 7

The Centre for Cellular Imaging at the Core Facilities, the Sahlgrenska Academy, is pleased to announce the purchase and installation of the Lightsheet 7 fluorescence microscope.

Light sheet fluorescence microscopy (LSFM) uses a thin sheet of light to excite only fluorophores within the focal volume. It is ideal for fast and gentle imaging of whole living model organisms, tissues, and cells as they develop – over extended periods of time. Furthermore, the Lightsheet 7 is designed to handle large optically cleared specimens with subcellular resolution. Dedicated optics, sample chambers, and holders allow adaption to the refractive index of the chosen clearing method.

Please join us on January 18th to explore what is possible with this new instrumentation!
