Super-resolution microscopes
Microscope Zeiss Elyra PS.1 uses technologies of structured illumination (SIM) and precise localization (PALM/STORM) to overcome the so-called diffraction barrier, which limits us to the resolution of around 200 nm in conventional light microscopy. Nanoscopy allows us to observe structures with 2-3x higher resolution with SIM and up to 5 nm with localization microscopy. The microscope can use a technology of TIRF (Total Internal Reflection Fluorescence) to increase the signal-to-noise ratio in the space near to cover glass. A set of high-quality lasers and cameras help us to make great super-resolution images.
