Yokogawa Corporation of America: High-Performance Confocal Scanner Unit for Life Science Applications
June 27, 2012
With significantly larger field of view, decreased crosstalk, and extended near-infrared spectral range, the CSU-W1 can obtain sharper images of regions deeper inside live cells.
The unit features a wider field of view and clearer imaging using a larger, newly designed Nipkow disk that allows imaging of areas up to four times the size possible with previous models; this quadruples throughput and increases the likelihood that images of phenomena will be captured even when it is difficult to predict where they will occur. Also featured is expanded wavelength up to near-infrared (785 nm) for deeper observation. The longer wavelength laser beams penetrate further, enabling the observation of regions deeper inside live cells. Three models are available: a single-camera model, a two-camera model for two-wavelength simultaneous observation, and a single-camera, split-view model for two-wavelength simultaneous observation in a single image. Suggested include real-time observation of protein behavior and physiological responses in live cells and observation of two/three-dimensional structures and changes in cells and living tissues.
