What is a Resonant Scanner?
A resonant scanner is a type of galvanometric mirror scanner that allows fast image acquisition with single-point scanning microscopes (true confocal and multiphoton laser scanning). High acquisition…Read article
What is a Tandem Scanner?
A Tandem Scanner is an assembly of two different types of scanning together in one system for true confocal point scanning. The Tandem Scanner consists of a three-mirror scanning base with the…Read article
FRAP with TCS SP8 Resonant Scanner
Fast FRAP experiments need a sufficient number of measurement points for meaningful interpretation and fitting analysis. To study very fast translocational processes, the use of a resonant scanner…Read article
Video: High Speed Scanning – With two Scanners in one System
High speed scanning is necessary to image rapidly changing biological processes. With traditional scanning techniques, imaging speed is limited by the number of fluorophores in a specimen. And, rapid…Read article
Smart Control for Resonant Galvo Scanners
High time-resolution confocal microscopy (HTRCLSM) requires fast scanning devices. Whereas non-resonant galvo scanners allow full position control, but only at slow speed, resonant scanners allow…Read article
Brighter Fluorescence by Resonant Scanning
Fast True Confocal Scanning reduces photobleaching and increases the fluorescence yield at identical acquisition times. The long-lasting triplet state (or any other “dark state”) is less populated…Read article
