Description : Olympus FVMPE-RS multiphoton laser scanning microscope is available for deep tissue imaging of fixed samples and live whole animals. This system features a tunable infrared laser (MaiTai, 680~1040nm) to excite multiple fluorescence dyes optimally for precise multispectral imaging. It also provides resonance scanning mode for high speed imaging and laser light stimulation for photomanipulation of fluorophores such as FRAP and optogenetics. With dedicated multiphoton-specific objectives (10x and 25x water dipping), these features allow users to image the large samples (up to 8 mm thickness) in multicolor 4D. Multicolor Imaging filter cubes: FVG (violet & green) and FGR (green & red) are available. The system is equipped with two GaAsP PMTs and also has 3D deconvolution and rendering functions.
