The Nikon "Crest" system is an inverted, spinning-disk confocal microscope that allows for high-throughput, confocal imaging of cell and tissue samples.
The Crest Spinning-Disk features a wide selection of laser lines (UV- IR) and is ideal for applications that require the increased resolution and contrast of
confocal imaging, with the speed of a widefield microscope. The Crest system is equipped with a stage-top environmental incubator for live cell imaging and a back-illuminated sCMOS camera, making it ideal for imaging living samples (cells, organoids, etc.) with minimal phototoxicity. The Crest features both fluorescence and color cameras, enabling users to image datasets with IHC and fluorescent samples.
