PICK THE RIGHT TOOL FOR YOUR BIOLOGY

Through 89 North’s and Chroma’s diverse product lines and partners, we can provide the right tool to meet your imaging needs. Whether high quality widefield, high speed confocal, or more advanced techniques such as TIRF or light sheet, 89 North can supply the correct instrument to meet your research needs.

HARNESS LIGHT TO INTERROGATE THE BRAIN

Imaging methods in neuroscience allow for imaging deep into brain tissue with high spatial and temporal resolution. Using photo kinetics, such as our Rapp product line, you can use and manipulate light to further interrogate your samples to learn more about their function.

TRAINED TEAM READY TO HELP

89 North’s experienced sales force is ready to help you design your dream imaging system. Our team has the knowledge and experience to help you assemble the system you need at a price you can afford.

Light Sheet

Light sheet microscopy uses a thin plane of light to illuminate a sample. It allows fast volumetric imaging with reduced photo damage compared to conventional light microscopy methods.

TIRF

Total Internal Reflectance Fluorescence (TIRF) uses an evanescent wave to create unsurpassed image contrast. The OptoTIRF is a great budget friendly way to add expanded capability to your existing system.

Single Molecule FISH

(smFISH)

FISH, and not the kind that swim in the ocean, is a common and popular microscopy technique. With our high speed confocal system, the Crest V3, you can sequence your samples in a fraction of the time of traditional laser scanning confocal systems.

FRAP

Fluorescence recovery after photobleaching (FRAP) is a method for determining the kinetics of diffusion through tissue or cells. We have a number of different systems for doing high speed and precision FRAP with our Rapp partnership.
