Study Overview
Our company uses the Keyence BZ-X700 fluorescence microscope to observe many different kinds of samples.
Using this equipment, we offer a service to take fluorescence images and observe samples provided by customers.
In addition to simply observing customer samples, we also offer custom cell-based testing services. We can support the whole study process, including growing cells, adding test substances, and observing and analyzing the cells with a fluorescence microscope.
Equipment used
BZ-X700 (KEYENCE)
Features of the BZ-X700
The Keyence BZ-X700 all-in-one fluorescence microscope has many advantages compared with older fluorescence microscopes. It makes the work from taking images to checking and analyzing the results much faster. It also helps us obtain more accurate and reliable data.
Resolving fluorescence blur
- Haze reduction (removal of fluorescence blur)
- Sectioning (laser-less, clear, blur-free images)
Advanced analysis possible
- Full focus
- 3D analysis
- Quantification
- Time lapse (observation of changes over time)
- High-resolution image stitching
Analysis example 1: Three-dimensional analysis (is GFP expressed on the cell membrane or translocated to the nucleus?)
Analysis example 2: Three-dimensional analysis (sperm)
Resistant to fading and minimizes damage
- High-sensitivity monochrome/color switchable cooled CCD
- Fade reduction mode
Ease of operation
- Fully motorized control
- Large motorized stage
- Stage view
- Navigation
- Autofocus (Instant focus ⇒ No browning of fluorescence)
- Real-time overlay (Adjust exposure time while overlaying images in real time ⇒ Create the desired multiple fluorescence images)
Brightfield observation possible
- High-sensitivity monochrome⇔color switchable cooled CCD
*Studies will be mainly conducted by those with doctoral degrees.
