ZEISS Axio Observer: Advanced Tool for Life Science Exploration
AI-Enhanced Inverted Microscope Setup
Life science research presents daily challenges. It demands a versatile microscope tailored for your specifics. The ZEISS Axio Observer serves as the perfect inverted platform for multifaceted imaging of both live and preserved samples. Integrate it with multiple technological solutions to hone in on your precise experimental needs.
- Features range from widefield imaging to super-resolution
- Unparalleled assistance throughout your research process
- Maximize imaging efficiency through advanced automation
Research Flexibility
Given the evolving nature of life sciences, the Axio Observer is equipped with interfaces from widefield light to 3D sectioning. Opt for the best incubation tools, simple sample access, and precise micromanipulation. Its vast integrated options promise adaptability and longevity.
Workflow Streamlining
Achieve imaging in mere seconds, courtesy of the AI Sample Finder. With automated carrier detection and focus adjustments, it simplifies your imaging tasks. Plus, easy integration with electron microscopy and other methods
Boost Your Experiment's Efficiency
Experience elevated efficiency with rapid light source transitions and filters. Choose cameras for optimal image quality and speed. Enjoy consistent focus during prolonged imaging and seamless objective adjustments
AI Sample Finder
Cut down experiment initiation to seconds. As microscopes grow more automated, AI Sample Finder fills the gap by swiftly adjusting and identifying samples.
Automated Identification of Samples for Efficient Imaging
While microscopes are becoming more automated, certain tasks like sample placement, focus adjustment, and identifying relevant areas on the sample carrier still involve manual steps. The AI Sample Finder automates these processes, eliminating time-consuming adjustments and reducing image capture time from minutes to seconds
Apotome 3: Fluorescent Sample Mastery
Through structured illumination, out-of-focus light is effortlessly excluded. ZEISS Apotome 3 processes optical sections from multiple images, ensuring high-contrast visuals even for denser specimens, while retaining user-friendliness
Optical Slicing Utilizing Structured Illumination
Structured illumination simplifies and streamlines the removal of out-of-focus light. ZEISS Apotome 3 generates an optical section by combining multiple images captured at various grid positions. Obtain high-contrast images, even from thicker specimens, all while maintaining the same user-friendly system operation
Autoimmersion Module
Automated, hands-free water immersion for reliable data acquisition from start to finish.
Minimize Your Risk. Improve Your Efficiency.
High-resolution imaging requires immersion media between the sample and the objective. Manual addition of immersion media risks loss of data points or even microscope damage from user error; it is also tedious and inefficient. The Autoimmersion Module for ZEISS Axio Observer 7 widefield and confocal systems is your automated, easy-to-use solution for maintaining immersion media for water immersion objectives
