The wavelength obtained by dual-fluorochrome dyeing can be acquired and observed as
images of the channels (Ch1 or Ch2).
The subsequent description deals with the differences in operation between the
monochrome dyeing and dual-fluorochrome dyeing.
When the specimen dyed by dual-fluorochrome dyeing is observed, the image of
wavelengths below 570 nm is acquired in channel 1 (Ch1) and the image of
wavelengths above 570 nm is acquired in channel 2 (Ch2) .
