Nikon sora functions

What can the Nikon SoRa do?

Briefly: It can do live-cell, dual-color high-speed superresolution confocal imaging, in combination with FRAP (optional).

In more detail, it can do:

- Live-cell incubation (keeping temperature, humidity and CO2 at desired levels)

Observation by eye, using the binoculars:

- Brightfield (simple white light lamp, light coming from above the objective)

- Widefield epifluorsecence (specific excitation and emission colors, excitation light coming out of the objective)

Observation by camera, using the software:

- Brightfield - Widefield epifluorescence - Spinning disc confocal imaging (up to ca. 260 nm resolution) - Superresolution spinning disc confocal imaging (up to ca. 120 nm resolution) - FRAP (fluorescence recovery after photobleaching, 488 nm bleaching laser available)
