M06 - Axiovert 200M - Spinning Disk Confocal

System Description

The M06 system is an inverted widefield microscope for brightfield and fluorescence. It is additionally ecquipped with a spinning disc (SD) head - QLC100, allowing fast confocal acquisition. All components are controlled by Metamorph.
The system is fully programmable and therefore able to run multidimensional experiments including any combination of the following: multiple positions, multiple wavelengths including brightfield (DIC), z-Stacks, time-lapse.
This makes it suitable e.g. for  various live cell experiments or the automatic acquisition of a large amount of images (screening).
