This can lead to positive academic, economic and environmental impacts. Fluorescence microscopy is a key element in many aspects of research throughout the physical, life and health sciences. Microscopes are found in virtually all research institutes, universities, hospitals, biotechnology companies and pharmaceutical companies.</p> Thu, 10 Dec 2015 19:54:34 +0000 rebecca.deagle@mcgill.ca 1351 at /lifesciencescomplex /lifesciencescomplex/channels/news/new-lsm-800-microscope-257250 <p>The <strong>Advanced BioImaging Facility (ABIF)</strong> has integrated a brand <strong>new LSM 800 microscope</strong> from Zeiss into the facility.</p> <p>Featuring convenient and user-friendly software complete with custom-made shortcut buttons for experiment repetition as well as Airyscan for 1.7x more resolution in image acquisition.</p> Thu, 10 Dec 2015 19:29:37 +0000 rebecca.deagle@mcgill.ca 1350 at /lifesciencescomplex /lifesciencescomplex/facilities/advanced-bioimaging-facility-abif/equipment/tirf <p><strong>Total Internal Reflection Fluorescence (TIRF) microscope</strong> for looking within ~100 nm of the microscope slide.
