Fluorescence imaging is a key technique in both biomedical research and clinical diagnosis. Fluorescence-based microscopy for high-resolution and high-throughput multifluorophore imaging typically relies on the use of several individual laser sources at different wavelengths, within the same instrument.
Removing the complexity of integrating individual lasers with a multi-line solution or laser combiner makes for simpler, more cost-efficient and user-friendly instrumentation, while becoming easier to manufacture and maintain. And as more of the traditionally laboratory-based techniques transition into clinical settings, the need for reliable multicolor laser excitation to provide the imaging quality and speed necessary for clinical use is essential.
Navigating the field of laser-based multicolor excitation options can be challenging. Multi-line lasers, such as the Cobolt Skyra™, provide a permanently aligned and service-free multicolor illumination source with up to four wavelengths in a very compact package. Laser combiners, such as the C-FLEX, provide high power and flexible solutions with up to eight wavelengths and laser technology suitable for multidisciplinary applications, such as combining Raman spectroscopy and fluorescence microscopy. Both options fulfill niches within the landscape of multicolor laser excitation for fluorescence microscopy techniques.
In this webinar, Melissa Haahr and Helge Schmidt, Ph.D., of HÜBNER Photonics discuss the relative advantages of multi-line lasers and laser combiners, introducing the technology behind both solutions, with the aim to help identify the suitability of either solution for applications including light sheet microscopy, SIM, TIRF, STED, confocal microscopy, flow cytometry, and combined techniques.
Who should attend:
This webinar is intended for both researchers and instrument manufacturers who are interested in new solutions of lasers for their experiments or instrument design. This includes R&D scientists, engineers, project and production managers, and purchasers who work with laser systems for fluorescence imaging in various applications within biophotonics and medicine.
