• Acquisitions on cultured cells or thick tissues in fluorescence (up to 100 µm thickness)
• Acquisitions on material (in reflection mode)
• STED on cultured cells or thin tissue slices
• FLIM imaging on cultured cells or tissue slices with white-light laser (470-670 nm) and 440 nm pulsed laser
• Confocal acquisitions in transmission (brightfield or DIC), fluorescence (colocalisation, 3D reconstruction)
• Mosaics of images acquisitions in 2D or 3D
• Acquisition in reflection
• Spectral acquisition (at excitation and emission)
• FALCON mode to measure the fluorescence lifetime of the fluorochromes on the sample
