The Nikon "SoRa" system is our most advanced spinning-disk confocal and merges the advantages of confocal imaging with a 2x increase in resolution using "SoRa mode", making this both a confocal and super-resolution microscope. The SoRa spinning-disk confocal microscope is equipped with an environmental chamber (capable of generating hypoxic conditions) and the high-resolution sCMOS Kinetix camera, making it ideal for super-resolution per resolution imaging of live samples (cells, organoids, etc.) with minimal phototoxicity. Unlike most spinning-disk microscopes, the SoRa is equipped with an Opti-Microscan Galvano Scanner, enabling experiments that require localized photostimulation or FRAP.
