STEDYCON 新世代超分辨共聚焦显微镜

在 Abberior 团队, 咨询许多超分辨与共聚焦用户后, 发现, 多数人都提出机个问题 :

问题一 : 购买使用共聚焦最主要的目的是想取得更高解析的成像质量, 那既然取得购置经费, 为何不一次购置超分辨 STED 系统 ?

问题二 : 既然要取得更高质量与更高解析的成像, 为何不一次就取得优于 30 nm 的超分辨成像 (pulsed 775 STED).

问题三 : 市场上, 可以同时拥有低价与高性能的超分辨系统 ?

DynamicPLUS

Superior sensitivity and full dynamic range within the same image

Our new DynamicPLUS feature offers unrivaled performance with both STED and classical confocal applications. With DynamicPLUS, you can be sure to capture everything from the faintest details to the brightest spots.

The underlying avalanche photo detectors (APDs) have a superior quantum efficiency, up to a factor of two above even hybrid detectors. This means that even when signal-levels are low, our APDs still collect plenty of photons for a meaningful image. Typical applications are super-resolution STED imaging and experiments with low labeling densities designed to stay close to physiological conditions.

At the same time, the dead-time compensation of DynamicPLUS allows crisp images of high-signal samples, such as bright confocal images. Of course, raw data for quantitative analysis and deconvolution is always available.

The immunostaining was performed on brain paraffin sections (7µm) for a mouse model of Huntington's disease. Both images show the nucleolus - the sub-nuclear compartment where ribosomal RNA synthesis takes place - labeled for a nucleolar marker protein by Abberior STAR RED secondary antibody (magenta), and nuclear inclusions of the mutant Huntingtin protein (cyan) by Abberior STAR 580. These inclusions are visible also outside the nucleus. Shown is raw data. Images were acquired using a STEDYCON attached to an Olympus BX53.
