Infrared microscope VivoScope

laboratoryuprightmultiphoton

The VivoScope is a slimline upright microscope. When combined with a multiphoton scan head, it forms the foundation of the finest in vivo imaging system for two-photon behavioural studies. The VivoScope is ideal for larger in vivo samples, linear or spherical treadmills, large stereotaxic frames or other virtual reality set-ups. The extended position of the scan head gives more room between the light path on your sample and the microscope frame. Benefits Extra space The extended scan head gives more room between the light path onto your sample and the microscope frame without compromising stability (205.94 mm up from 130 mm). Galvo or Resonant The VivoScope is available with both galvo and resonant scan head options, depending on your experimental requirements. Acoustic isolation Our custom scan head enclosure integrates acoustic insulating foam to dramatically reduce the audible noise created by the resonant motor without affecting performance. Patch under multiphoton illumination The fast frame rate provides the visual feedback required to position your patch pipette accurately under infrared laser light. Deep imaging for large populations of cells Tailored to large back aperture objectives, the entire field of view can be quickly scanned to monitor the activity from a large number of cells. The VivoScope microscope frame is available with resonant or galvo scan heads and a variety of detectors including the MDU, MDU XL and FLIM Upgrade kit.
