Tailored to the needs of a broad range of applications in individual research environments, the system complements the recently introduced ZEISS LSM 8 family. With highly sensitive GaAsP detector technology and fast linear scanning, ZEISS LSM 800 provides high image quality and offers enhanced productivity and throughput, as wel...
The CX-20 cabinet combines separate long-wave and short-wave 8-watt UV light sources with uniquely designed specular aluminum reflectors to assure maximum intensity and exceptional fluorescent contrast. An internal 25-watt white light bulb provides visible illumination. The unit has a removable bottom panel so it can be easily placed over 20 x 20 gels and TLC plates, or to provide greater illumination, over a Spectroline UV transilluminator...
The Specialised Imaging Kirana camera provides REL, Inc with the ability to create high-resolution images of the ultra high-speed events that often occur with materials testing. Taking up to 5,000,000 frames per second, and shuttering every 100 nanoseconds, there is no compromise in capturing high quality data. The data is exported in 180 frames so each test can be easily saved and viewed. The initial applications undertaken...
Uniquely combining high performance, leading edge features and affordability the omniDOC series provide an easy-to-use, yet powerful gel imaging system that satisfies the needs of most laboratories. The omniDOCi shares all the same features as the standard omniDOC but with the added benefit of wireless connectivity enabling the system to be run in a darkroom from a remote PC or tablet....
Users of the SPARC technology at Chalmers University of Technology in Gothenburg, Sweden are applying cathodoluminescence measurements to study the properties of nanophotonic devices. Dr Ruggero Verre is a post-doctoral researcher in the Department of Applied Physics - Division of Bionanophotonics at the Chalmers University of Technology in Gothenburg in southern Sweden. His work in the group headed by...
This 24-month project, funded from the European Union Seventh Framework Programme (FP7-SME-2013), will incorporate a contactless sample transportation system for histology. Histology, the microscopic examination of cell tissue samples, is an essential component in the early detection of diseases such as cancer. Total pathology services, of which histology is an important part, costs the UK’s NHS an estimated £2.5 billion...
The attention of the young development team was sharply focused on user-friendliness, design and technology. To dive into virtual worlds, all the user needs to do is select an appropriate VR app and slide his or her smartphone into the headset using the tray provided. ZEISS VR ONE will initially be available worldwide with a tray for the Samsung Galaxy S5 smartphone and the iPhone 6. Other models are in the pipeline. The Computer Aided...
