The Volpi Group, a 60-year-old optical electronics firm based in Schlieren, Switzerland, today announced that it is collaborating with QIAGEN Instruments AG on the manufacture of the automated fluorescence imaging module used in QIAGEN’s GeneReaderTM next-generation sequencing (NGS) instrument. The benchtop GeneReader combines ...

The 2PM TM is an ultracompact, low-price two-photon microscope for life cell and multiphoton deep tissue imaging. Autofluorescence, Second Harmonic Generation (SHG), fluorescent proteins, and exogeneous fluorophores can be detected. Optical sectioning is achieved by multiphoton excitation and xy-galvoscanning and piezo-driven ...

The femtOgene is an ultracompact scanning non-linear microscope with galvoscanners for beam scanning and focussing optics equipped with large-NA objectives (40x/1.3). Multiphoton effects in a sub-femtoliter focal volume induce a transient nanohole in the cellular membrane which allows optical ...

The system femt-O-cut® uses compact femtosecond NIR lasers for 3-dimensional nanoprocessing in transparent materials. Low energy (sub-nanojoule to nanojoule) pulses at high repetition rates of up to 90 MHz are focused by high numerical aperture (NA 1.3) optics for optical breakdown in sub-femtoliter volumes. The beam intensity is ...

High submicron resolution imaging during freezing and heating based on near infrared femtosecond laser technology

The MPTflex is a CE-certified medical tomograph based on femtosecond multiphoton excitation of fluorescent biomolecules like NAD(P)H, flavins, porphyrins, elastin, and melanin. The extracellular matrix protein collagen can be identified by its second harmonic generation (SHG). Autofluorescence and SHG signals are recorded by fast PMT ...
