The VOLTA Scanner simultaneously monitors cellular function with submillisecond temporal resolution in 96- and 384-microwell plates.
Volta’s two-laser optical system contains 462 and 660 nm diode lasers, and offers 96- or 384-well microplate configurations.
The ZIVA Light Engine delivers approximately 100 mW of output power from each of its seven laser light sources.
ZIVA quattro light engines deliver ~100 mW output power at the distal end of a 100 µm optical fiber for each of its 4- or 5-line individually addressable light sources.
When photons from a light engine are getting lost on their way to the microscope’s sample plane, follow this path to find the failure point(s).
Generic benefits of solid-state light engines are key reasons these next-gen sources are increasingly replacing incandescent-lamp sources in bio applications.
Increasingly, neuroscientists are working with researchers in disciplines such as chemistry and physics. This trend has been noticed by exhibitors at the Society for Neuroscience...

To investigate the bleaching rate of fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC) with different light sources, 1mM FITC in water under a coverslip was collected with a Nikon E800 and 40x, 0.75 numerical aperture objective at 1 s intervals for 1 min using a CoolSNAP MYO camera (Photometrics). The red dotted line represents a 120 W metal-halide source at full power with the microscope shutter set to block illumination between exposures using an enhanced green fluorescent protein (eGFP) filter set. The green solid line is similar, using the cyan line of the self-shuttering Lumencor SpectraX Light Engine at full power, pulsing at 1 ms intervals during the 1 s exposure. Note t0 = 2,000 counts and 5,081 counts for metal-halide and light engine, respectively.
