OMX-SR

The OMX-SR is optimized for 2D and 3D Structured Illumination Microscopy (SIM) to achieve resolutions ~100nm in XY and ~300nm in the Z. The system is also equipped with RING TIRF, FRAP/Photoactivation, temperature and CO2 control for live cell imaging, and has deconvolution algorithms built into the software.
