Function: The Nikon NiE is a very nice general purpose research microscope. It is equipped for brightfield, DIC, phase and epifluorescence imaging. The microscope has 4X to 100X objectives so a wide range of samples can be accommodated. Epifluorescence imaging on this scope works best with thin, flat specimens.
Features: The Nikon Eclipse is an upright, semi-automated microscope platform. Hamamatsu Orca-Flash 2.8 sCMOS high resolution camera. Lumencor SpectraX LED light source for fluorescence imaging of UV/DAPI, CFP, Green, YFP, Red, and Far-red (CY-5) fluorophores. Motorized focus control for Z-stack images. Controlled by Nikon Elements software.
