The Bioimaging Facility at IST Austria is hosting a demonstration of a Nikon N-SIM system from October 4th – 20th, 2021. The N-SIM S Super Resolution Microscope is a unique high-speed structured illumination system that achieves acquisition speeds of up to 15 fps, enabling fast biological processes to be captured at twice the spatial resolution of conventional light microscopes (up to 115nm in XY). Combining the N-SIM S and a confocal microscope gives you the flexibility to select a location in the confocal image and switch to super-resolution to view the desired part of the location in minute detail.

The Bioimaging Facility at IST Austria is hosting a demonstration of the Olympus VS200, another high-throughput slide scanning system. Benefits of this system: Flexibility to use dry, silicone oil or oil objectives Automatic oil dispenser Possibility to manually adjust and place focus points Separate slide holder for 210 slides that can be (un)loaded during imaging Priority scanning: stops batch scan to image important single scan and resumes batch scan afterwards   DEMO SCHEDULE:  The system will be installed on the 19.07.2021 and subsequently will be available for testing for two weeks until 31.07. in Lab building West (room i21.U1.027) Contact Read More …

The Bioimaging Facility at IST Austria is hosting a demonstration of Alvéole’s PRIMO system: a UV-light based micropatterning system. This micropatterning system works as a UV-projector that is coupled to a microscope. In this way you are able to project any microscopic image onto your sample with UV light which opens up a long list of possible applications: Create controlled and reproducible microenvironments for cells, tissue engineering, spheroids, etc. Control adhesion forces, cell confinement, cell migration, tissue engineering Contactless and maskless photopatterning DEMO SCHEDULE:  The Alvéole’s PRIMO will be installed on the 22.06.2021 and subsequently it is available for testing Read More …

(below) Specification: 25 mounting frames for 4 slides (= 100 slides loading capacity in 1 time) Contrast techniques: TL Brightfield TL Ring Aperature Contrast (RAC) 7 solid state LED lamps (Kolibri 7):  (630nm) for excitation of Cy5, Alexa 631, TOTO-3 and similar dyes Yellow (590nm) for excitation of Read More …

The bioimaging facility at I.S.T. Austria is hosting a demonstration of the ZEISS Lattice Lightsheet 7 system from March 29th until April 2nd, 2021. The setup will be available in room i21.U1.027 (Basement Lab Building West). Edit: Zen 3.3 LLS7 software has been installed on Workstation 1. You can use the software to deskew the raw data or deconvolve the Z-stacks. We also suggest that you look at the data in your favorite image analysis program. A (remote) seminar is provided by Dr Jacques Paysan (Product & Application Specialist) on Monday, March 29, 2021. The seminar includes a brief explanation of Read More …

The Bioimaging Facility at IST Austria is hosting a demonstration of a Nikon Ti2-LAPP TIRF system on March 23rd-26th, 2021. The TIRF setup will be temporarily available at our Nikon Ti2-2 setup, in room i04.u1.015. Specifications summary: TIRF Two independent TIRF units for sequential Multicolor TIRF or simultaneous 2 color TIRF Precise alignment of the critical angle per wavelength Easy TIRF calibration and visual confirmation of TIRF angle Gradation ND filter for a very even TIRF illumination Available Laser Lines for TIRF: 488, 561 and 640 FRAP FRAP device for photobleaching and photoactivation/conversion experiments Free control of stimulation ROI(s) shape, Read More …
