Multiphoton Confocal Microscope

Multiphoton Confocal Microscope

Nikon Corporation (Nikon) is pleased to announce the release of the AX R MP multiphoton confocal microscope, which can acquire high resolution, large field of view images deep within living organisms at high speed.

In recent years, in research fields such as neuroscience and immunology, research regarding fast biological dynamics (e.g., cranial nerve signaling, blood flow) has been characterized by observing large samples such as live tissue and even whole animals with a microscope. These methods are continuously advancing, and as a result, there is a demand for systems that support a broad range of experiments and enable lateral and oblique observation of samples without changing their orientation.

To meet such needs, Nikon manufactures high-speed multiphoton confocal microscopes that scan samples with an infrared ultrashort pulse laser, enabling observation of deep structures in three dimensions. And now, Nikon has developed the AX R MP multiphoton confocal microscope, which enables high speed acquisition of high resolution, large field of view images. With an upright microscope configuration, a large space is provided under the objective to support a wide range of experiments and acquisition of images from various angles. The AX R MP efficiently acquires large amounts of information on ultrastructure in the deep regions of living organisms, supporting research into diverse biological phenomena.
