In addition to standard Laser Scanning Confocal Microscope (LSCM) the CBIA Core is home to one Quorum Spinning disk fitted with a CCD and an EMCCD cameras for high speed and high sensitivity imaging needs. In addition our spinning disk has 3D D-STORM capabilities for the highest super-resolution imaging. Lately installed the state-of-the-art confocal microscope, the Zeiss LSM880 equipped with AiryScan FAST technology, to acquire super-resolution images faster than never before!
