Fiber launch tirfm

Manufactured by Nikon
Visit Supplier

The Fiber Launch TIRFM is a specialized lab equipment designed for use in total internal reflection fluorescence microscopy (TIRFM) experiments. It is responsible for efficiently launching light into a fiber optic waveguide, which is a key component in TIRFM setups. The core function of this product is to provide a reliable and controlled method for introducing excitation light into the TIRFM system.

Thin Filament Sliding Assay Protocol

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
All native thin filament sliding assays were performed at room temperature (22 ± 1°C) using a Nikon Eclipse Ti-U inverted microscope equipped with a Plan Apo 100× 1.49 N.A. oil emersion lens for epifluorescence or through-the-objective total internal reflectance microscopy (TIRFM) using a custom “Micro Optic Fiber Launch TIRFM” (patent pending) as described (14 (link)). Briefly, either a Lumen 200-W metal arc lamp (Prior Scientific) or 532-nm diode-pumped, solid-state, 50-mW laser (Lasever Inc.) was used for excitation. Images were obtained using an intensified high-resolution 10-bit digital camera (XR/Turbo-Z running Piper Control v2.6.09 software, Stanford Photonics).

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
