Location: SRC 105A
Description: The resonant scanner system of the A1 utilizes a high-speed resonant galvanometer capable of acquiring up to 240 frames per second, which could be perfect for methods using photoactivation fluorescence proteins and facilitates high-speed, live-cell work.
Three PMT alkali detectors
One color camera
Four different lasers: 405 nm, 488 nm, 561 nm, 640 nm
Objectives: 10x, 20x (multi-immersion), 40x (oil), 60x (oil), 100x (oil)
With the A1, you can do the following:
Z stack, large image/tiling, movies, positions memory
Live imaging option
Spectral unmixing capability.
Glavano vs. raisonance scanning mode plus Ai denoised technology
Epi-fluorescence (DAPI, FITC, TRITC) with the possibility to acquire images
Operates on the NIS AR element software

Hello A1 Users,
You want to open your ND2 images on your computer to avoid going to 105A to export your file into a different format. That's easy. Here are two options.
Option 1: Use the free viewer version of the NIS Elements. It is very limited in its capabilities, but it will allow you to open your ND2 files and export your images as TIFF files.
Option 2: Use Image J free software. Download the software here. Then, you must download the plug-in to open any nd2 format images. To do so, go to the open microscopy web page. Then, download the Bio-Formats Package. Open your image J program and drag your download bio-format directly into the image J interface (the gray bar on your screen that popped up when you opened image J). It will open a new window asking you to save your plug-in. Click save. Now, you can open any nd2 image in image J.
Enjoy your microscopy images.
