Zeiss LSM 710 Laser Scanning Confocal Microscope

The LSM710 confocal microscope is an environmentally controllable system (CO2, temperature, humidity) useful for live and fixed sample imaging. Six unique excitation wavelengths (covering UV to far red) and a 36 array detection system allows for examination of multiple fluorphores both simultaneously and sequentially. Definite focus and z-plane acquisition parameters add increased functionality allowing for imaging experiments to proceed unattended for multiple days. The user-friendly Zen software platform also allows for FRET, FRAP, and Mosaic Imagining.
