[Plantsci] mCherry fluorescences imaging purchase

[Rogers-Caron, Joy E - (jerogers)]

On behalf of Mark Thompson in the Dieckmann lab in MCB:

We are planning to purchase an expensive filter set for imaging mCherry fluorescences in plant cells.  To defray the initial expense we would very much like to share the cost with others who could use this in their research.  We will be demoing the filter set before we purchase it, so anyone is welcomed to test their samples to decide if it is something that would be applicable for them.  The filter set will be used on a new Deltavision Elite deconvolution microscope located in LSS.

The following is information about a seminar that will be given on Friday to highlight the features of the microscope. If anyone has question or would like more information please email me at mark140 at email.arizona.edu<mailto:mark140 at email.arizona.edu>.

Deltavision Elite: New possibilities for imaging small, dim and live biological samples

Seminar: Friday, January 17, 2014 at 1:30 pm Room 440 Life Sciences South.
The newly installed Deltavision deconvolution system has a number of new features. This system is approximately 5x more sensitive that the old system. This system has a solid state illumination system, ultimate-focus autofocus system, slide and micro-titer plate holder, temperature and CO2 level controlled chamber and a wide range of filters. HaiGuang Zhang, an application scientist from GE Healthcare, will give an overview of the basics of deconvolution and some of features on the newly installed Deltavision Elite.
