Inverted GroonyTM Epi-fluorescence Retrofit
Add epi-fluorescence capabilities to your Nikon TMS microscope. The Nikon TMS
inverted scope is a widely used microscope in tissue culture facilities around
the world. Unfortunately, Nikon does not offer an epi-fluorescence attachment
for this workhorse. Intracellular imaging now offers the addition of
epi-fluorescence to this microscope. Simple to install and easy to use.
Fluorescence microscopy has become one of the most important and versatile tools
in cell biology. Over the past decade thousands of new fluorescence probes have
been developed for visualizing cellular structures and reactions including:
DNA, RNA cytoskeleton, mitochondria, lysomes, endoplasmic reticulum, Golgi
apparatus, specific proteins, lipids, redox status, cell-cell communication, and
the list goes on and on. However, the high cost of fluorescence microscopes
has inhibited many scientists and teachers from using this important
tool—but not any more!
