The newly purchased Synchronous Multi-Color Multiphoton Microscope FV4000MPE has been installed, and is planning a one-month trial operation phase from July 1 to July 31, 2014. During this period, the microscope will be free of use but users need to make reservation in SAMP website.

Synchronous Multi-Color Multiphoton Microscope FV4000MPE uses the advanced, silicon-based SilVIR？ detector that makes it easier than ever to acquire precise, reproducible data. The lasers of the microscope are equipped with four all solid-state long-life lasers of 405nm, 488nm, 561nm and 640nm and dual infrared pulse lasers with 690-1300um tunable and 1040nm wavelength. It is also equipped with hardware resonant fast scanning and photo bleaching module. It can collect fluorescent labeling signals from thick tissues or within cells, observe morphological changes and internal microstructures of tissues or cells at the cellular and subcellular levels, perform tomography scans on samples, reconstruct and analyze the three-dimensional spatial structure of tissues or cells, and observe changes in important ion concentrations, etc..
