FISH and Fluorescence advantages
The PROVIS AX70 thoroughly addresses the concerns of Fluorescence
and Fluorescence In Situ Hybridization (FISH) microscopy.
•
UIS objectives produce fully corrected primary images. This leads to
exceptional RGB image registration for high resolution CCDs.
•
High N.A. fluorescence optimized Fluorite and Plan Apochromat objectives
deliver images of exceptional brilliance, contrast and resolution.
•
The wide choices of filter systems satisfies every fluorescent label and
includes filter cubes for simultaneous multi wavelength excitation and
emission. In addition, filter systems can be tailored to future demands.
•
Ready adaptability of filter wheels to the massive stand enables the use of
stationary multichroic beam-splitter emission filters with single, dual and triple
wavelength exciter. This approach renders the highest registration
accuracy.
•
The chromatically corrected illumination beampath produces uniform
fluorescence over a wide field of view, encompassing the entire excitation
emission spectrum.
•
Efficient heat and IR removal in the collector lens protects interference exciter
filters from unnecessary energy.
•
The automation capability (RS232C/GPIB) of the PROVIS AX70 makes it an
ideal base for automated FISH imaging stations.
The combination of motorized units
with a multi-control box automates
the entire microscopic procedure.

different microscopic methods. The
AX70 also includes a motorized filter
changer and motorized revolving
nosepiece to speed selection of
excitation wavelength. In addition, the
AX70 allows the operator to affect
setting changes. This is achieved
through the motorized field stop and
aperture stop units, and the motorized
filter changeover, which can be used to
perform various microscopic
illumination techniques automatically.
The use of a multi-control box may
automate many functions including
photomicrography.
A computer-based control system.
For more advanced features, the multi-
control box can be linked to an external
computer via an interface. A computer
control system can therefore be
configured for other ancillary equipment
connected for use in FISH, patch
clamping and other biological research
applications. Remote controlled
photomicrography operation is also
possible.
