Csu w1 sora spinning disk scan head

Manufactured by Yokogawa

The CSU-W1 Sora spinning disk scan head is a laser scanning device used in microscopy applications. It is designed to rapidly scan a sample with a series of laser beams, enabling high-speed, wide-field imaging. The core function of the CSU-W1 Sora is to provide a fast and efficient method for illuminating and capturing images of microscopic samples.

Fluorescence confocal microscopy for Figure 2—figure supplement 1A and Figure 6—figure supplements 1, 2 was performed using a Zeiss Axio Imager with a Yokogawa spinning-disc confocal scanner. Fluorescence confocal microscopy for all other figures was performed using a custom-built inverted Zeiss Axio Observer with CSU-W1 Sora spinning disk scan head (Yokogawa), 1×/2.8× relay lens (Yokogawa), fast piezo z-drive (Applied Scientific Instrumentation), and a iXon Life 888 EMCCD camera (Andor). Samples were illuminated with 405/488/561/637 nm solid-state laser (Coherent), using a 405/488/561/640 transmitting dichroic (Semrock) and 624-40/692-40/525-30/445-45 nm bandpass filter (Semrock), respectively. Images from either microscope were taken with using Slidebook v6.0 software (Intelligent Imaging Innovations) using a 40×–1.3 NA/63×–1.4 NA objective (Zeiss) depending on sample.

Fluorescence confocal microscopy was performed using a ×63, 1.4 numerical aperture objective on an inverted ZEISS LSM 880-AiryScan (Fig. 2e,f and Extended Data Figs. 2f, 5a,b) or inverted Zeiss Axio Observer with CSU-W1 Sora spinning disk scan head (Yokogawa), 1X/×2.8 relay lens (Yokogawa), fast piezo z-drive (Applied Scientific Instrumentation), a iXon Life 888 EMCCD camera (Andor) and a 405/488/561/637 nm solid-state laser (Coherent) with a 405/488/561/640 nm transmitting dichroic (Semrock) and 624–40/692–40/525–30/445–45 nm bandpass filter (Semrock; all other figures). The ZEISS ZEN 3.4 (blue edition) imaging software and Airyscan Processing were used for images captured with the AiryScan. The Slidebook v.6.0 software from Intelligent Imaging Innovations was used for images captured with the Zeiss Axio.

Fluorescence Confocal Microscopy Protocols

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Fluorescence confocal microscopy was performed using two microscopes: 1) an inverted Zeiss Axio Observer with CSU-W1 Sora spinning disk scan head (Yokogawa), 1X/2.8x relay lens (Yokogawa), fast piezo z-drive (Applied Scientific Instrumentation), a iXon Life 888 EMCCD camera (Andor), and a 405/488/561/637nm solid-state laser (Coherent) with a 405/488/561/640 transmitting dichroic (Semrock) and 624-40/692-40/525-30/445-45nm bandpass filter (Semrock) respectively. Slidebook v6.0 software (Intelligent Imaging Innovations) was used for image capture, and a 63X-1.4NA objective (Zeiss) was used; 2) an inverted ZEISS LSM 880-AiryScan (Carl Zeiss) equipped with a 63X objective. ZEN imaging software (Carl Zeiss) was used for image capture, and images were subsequently processed by the ZEN Airyscan Processing method.

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.
