These technologies, funded by the NSW Government, reduce imaging time from hours to just minutes and have revolutionised 3D and live imaging, anatomical phenotyping, and drugs and mutation screening.
The Chiaro Nanoindenrer has the ability to investigate micro-mechanical properties of biomaterials ranging in stiffness between 10 Pa and 1 GPa.
The Micro-CT uses X-ray to capture 3D images of intact organisms at high resolution, allowing scientists to analyse organ changes throughout development.
With the Lightsheet microscope, it only takes minutes to observe the development of an organism labelled with fluorescent probes.
The Opera Phenix is a high-throughput content screening microscope that images hundreds of samples at the fastest speed currently possible.
The incredible speed of the Nikon Ti2E’s camera and software allows observation of fast events occurring in an organism.
Inverted and upright confocal microscopes allows high resolution observation of specimen for subcellular studies such as protein colocalization and cell morphology.
