This facility offers a collection of state-of-the-art light microscopy equipment and image processing tools.
The facility was set up as a cooperation between EMBL and industry to improve communication between users and producers of high-end microscopy technology. The ALMF supports in-house scientists and visitors in using light microscopy methods for their research.
EditThe Abbelight / Olympus Safe 360 is our new super-resolution microscope for 2D- and 3D- multicolour SMLM (single molecule localization microscopy) at the ALMF. The Abbelight Safe 360 module is connected to an Olympus IX83 microscope equipped with a 100x / NA 1.5 oil immersion objective. The…
The new Leica Stellaris 8 confocal microscope is equipped with the newest generation of Hybrid Detectors (HyD S) enabling detection up to 850nm and therefore the use of far-red dyes like Cy7 or Alexa750. The high-power white light laser with up to eight lines freely tunable from 440 to 790 nm…
The ALMF is happy to present a newly available confocal microscope Zeiss LSM980 AIRY Fast. In the confocal mode up to 6 fluorescence detection channels can be used in parallel. The AIRY detector enables to improve lateral and axial image resolution beyond regular confocal. AiryFast modality enables…
Dear ALMF Imaris users, we upgraded the ALMF Imaris Licenses and the full version is now available on the ALMF Gold VMs. We are sure this will increase your efficiency.
As a reminder we would like to inform ALMF users and all EMBL users who need support with image analysis to send their request to image-analysis-support@embl.de.
