Nikon Corporation announces the new Ti-LAPP System, which offers various combinations of multiple epi-fluorescence modules to meet the demands of bioscience imaging.
Since the appearance of the TIRF microscope in the bio-imaging field, cell membrane research and single molecule fluorescence imaging using live cells have become widespread. Furthermore, photostimulation is being adopted to observe protein motion within cells and neuron networks with photo-sensitive proteins. Observation methods to understand the complicated functions of cells have become increasingly diverse and complex.
Ti-LAPP System modules
The newly launched Ti-LAPP System presents the functions of Epi-Fluorescence, TIRF, Photostimulation as individual modules, which can be combined to suit various observation requirements without modifying the inverted microscope Eclipse Ti. By facilitating future function changes or system upgrades, Nikon continues to support cutting-edge research with the inverted microscope Eclipse Ti.
