3D Live Cell Imaging
Most AMBIO’s systems are configured to perform high-resolution multiplexed imaging experiments to reveal dynamics of subcellular structures over time (3D, live sample, multicolor).

Spinning Disk Confocal
The Nikon CSU-X is so far the most suited system to acquire 3D high-resolution images from live cells. AMBIO users have performed over 100 projects within the last years on this system. Some of the projects were recently published:

Lattice Light Sheet
We are proud to announce that we recently received a grant to acquire a novel Lattice Light Sheet Microscope System (LLS) within the DFG grant scheme ‘Neuartige Lichtmikroskopie/Novel Light Microscopy’
With this system AMBIO significantly enhances its main focus on high resolution live cell imaging. The LLS will allow AMBIO users to perform ultra-fast 3D subcellular imaging with minimal phototoxicity. The system is planned to be installed in Summer 2020.
