The mission of the MPI-CBG Light Microscopy Facility (MPI-CBG LMF) is to provide 24/7 access to state-of-the-art light microscopy techniques and instruments as well as to follow future trends. We assist through consultation, training, and project collaborations.
The LMF advises users during design and execution of their imaging projects. We provide support with selecting the most suitable imaging techniques, microscope systems, and setting up imaging experiments.
We offer our expertise in imaging techniques, such as
Spinning disk confocal microscopy
Laser scanning confocal microscopy
2-photon microscopy
Light sheet microscopy
Wide-field microscopy
Total internal reflection fluorescence (TIRF) microscopy
Laser capture microdissection
Extended resolution microscopy
Quantitative phase imaging
Live cell and organoid imaging
Photomanipulation
Furthermore, the LMF is constantly exploring new commercial technologies that can support the research mission of the MPI-CBG. We are also involved in multiple outreach and educational activities in Dresden, Germany and beyond.

Olympus FluoView 300 Confocal Microscope
Confocal microscopy can improve conventional fluorescence images by recording fluorescence generated from the focal plane within the sample, while rejecting all other light coming from above or below the focal plane. The efficient point-scan/pinhole-detection confocal optics of the FluoView systems virtually eliminate out of focus light to produce high-contrast images with superb resolution. The FluoView systems are fully integrated workstations that incorporate user-friendly image acquisition and image analysis software with high-resolution confocal optics that require no user alignment. An , Windows-based graphic user interface allows new users to quickly generate images in various scan modes, such as XY, XZ, XT, XYZ, XYT, and XYZT. Standard image formats, including TIFF and AVI, permit easy, direct export of FluoView images to off-line analysis packages. XY scanning is performed with a pair of galvanometric mirrors, yielding a wide scanning range to cover up to a field number of 20. The optical zoom (up to 10x magnification) can be performed by narrowing the scanning range while maintaining the maximum pixel resolution of up to 2048 x 2048 pixels. [Product Link]

RRID:SCR_023495
ZeBanC is an integrated healthcare biobank that operates under certified conditions and strict SOPs. This enables biomedical and translational researchers to perform their analyses using high-quality biospecimens and data to generate reliable and reproducible research data. To meet the needs of our various stakeholders, we offer a modular biobanking portfolio that can cover the entire workflow from blood collection to storage, including all pre-analytical steps and their documentation. This includes access to existing biospecimens and data under well-defined and agreed conditions. Furthermore, we offer a spectrum of additional services ranging from DNA/RNA extraction and virtual microscopy to the entire management of sample and data flow for national/international research consortia. Last but not least, we provide secure conventional and automated storage of samples at various temperatures as well as secure data management.
