This
Olympus model optical microscope is routinely used to study Polymer
film morphology and structural changes under various temperatures. It
is equipped with tungsten lamp to image in reflection/transmission mode
and a mercury lamp for fluorescence imaging. It has two digital cameras
and an image capture card interfaced to a computer. It has accessories
to image in dark field contrast, interference contrast, polarized light
contrast and a programmable hot stage to study at various temperatures.

The
confocal microscope is an excellent optical imaging tool pushing the
resolution limits of the optics. Our system is a Leica DM-IRBE. It has
many advanced features like precision motorized Z-drive, two lamps
(halogen and a mercury lamp) coupled with multi laser excitation and
dual photomultiplier detection. It is also equipped with Narishige
micromanipulator and microinjection tools for cell and vesicle
manipulation. |
