Microscope Imaging Centre

The MIC is a state-of-the-art facility for imaging of fixed and live biological specimens utilizing:

• conventional light microscopy (bright -field and fluorescence)
• advanced fluorescence microscopy
• confocal microscopy
• electron microscopy (scanning and transmission)
• sample preparation equipment
• digital imaging software

All available for researchers within and outside the NCMLS.

 

The purpose of the facility is 3-fold:

• To support various research projects by providing imaging expertise.
• To provide the latest in imaging technology, which may be too costly for individual labs to purchase and maintain on their own.
• To educate users, students and others interested in the theory and practice of different imaging techniques and equipment.
