The largest database of trusted experimental protocols

N sim and n storm modules

Manufactured by Nikon
Sourced in Japan

The N-SIM and N-STORM modules are advanced microscopy systems designed for high-resolution imaging of biological samples. The N-SIM module provides structured illumination microscopy (SIM) capabilities, enabling 2D and 3D super-resolution imaging. The N-STORM module utilizes stochastic optical reconstruction microscopy (STORM) technology to achieve nanometer-scale resolution. These modules are intended for use in research and analytical applications requiring detailed visualization of cellular structures and dynamics.

All data were acquired with a commercial inverted Nikon Eclipse Ti2 microscope (Nikon instruments, Tokyo, Japan), equipped with an A1R confocal scanhead and N-SIM and N-STORM modules (Nikon instruments, Tokyo, Japan). The fully motorized automated microscope was controlled by the NIS Elements software (version 5.42.01). The system performed multicolor widefield, confocal, and single-molecule localization imaging thanks to (i) an LED light source (pE-4000, CoolLED, Andover, UK) with 16 selectable wavelengths for widefield microscopy; (ii) a laser unit (LU-NV, Nikon instruments, Tokyo, Japan) equipped with 5 laser lines (405 nm (23.1 mW), 440 nm (25.5 mW) 488 nm (79.1 mW), 561 nm (79 mW), 647 nm (137 mW)) for confocal microscopy, and (iii) a laser bench (L4Cc combiner, Oxxius S.A., Lannion, France) equipped with four high-power sources (405 nm (216 mW), 488 nm (240 mW), 561 nm (240 mW), 640 nm (360 mW)) and two acousto-optic modulators for single-molecule microscopy). Emitted light was filtered by a filter wheel (Optospin, Cairn Research Ltd., Faversham, Kent, UK) and then was collected by a CMOS camera (Dual ORCA Flash 4.0 Digital CMOS camera C13440, Hamamatsu, Tokyo, Japan) set on a 16-bit scale detection modality (Widefield/DNA PAINT).

Sample were imaged by a commercial inverted Nikon Eclipse Ti2 microscope (Nikon instruments, Tokyo, Japan) equipped with an A1R confocal scan-head and N-SIM and N-STORM modules (Nikon instruments, Tokyo, Japan) and controlled by NIS Elements software (version 5.42.01). For widefield microscopy, an LED light source (pE-4000, CoolLED, Andover, United Kingdom) with 16 selectable wavelengths for widefield microscopy was employed. The light source for confocal imaging was a laser unit (LU-NV, Nikon instruments, Tokyo, Japan) equipped with 5 laser lines (405 nm (23.1 mW), 440 nm (25.5 mW) 488 nm (79.1 mW), 561 nm (79 mW), 647 nm (137 mW)), while a laser bench (L4Cc combiner, Oxxius S.A., Lannion, France) equipped with four high-power sources (405nm (216 mW), 488 nm (240 mW), 561 nm (240 mW), 640 nm (360 mW)) was employed for single-molecule localization experiments. A filter wheel (Optospin, Cairn Research Ltd, Faversham, Kent, UK) was placed in front of a CMOS camera (Dual ORCA Flash 4.0 Digital CMOS camera C13440, Hamamatsu, Tokyo, Japan) to acquire 16-bit scaled images (Widefield/DNA PAINT).

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.
