A new Zeiss LSM 900 with live cell incubation has replaced the Cell Discoverer 7. This will have a widefield monochrome camera and LED excitation that can be combined with the sample carrier tiling set up to achieve the same results as the CD7.
For those that are looking for a live cell confocal microscope features include:
- 2 MA-PMTs, GaAsP detector, and ESID
- Lasers: 405, 488, 561, 640
- Objectives: 5x/0.16, 10x/0.45, 20x/0.8, 40x/1.3 oil, 40x/1.2 multi-immersion
- Full incubation with CO2
- Definite focus 3, for long term imaging stability
