The Imaging and Spectroscopy Core features the following equipment:

  • Bruker Ultima Investigator upright multiphoton microscope
  • Bruker Ultima Investigator inverted I multiphoton microscope
  • Horiba Confocal Raman microscope
  • Olympus Fluoview FV10i-LIV Confocal microscope
  • JY Horiba Imaging spectrometer
  • Andor Raman spectrometer
  • Ocean Optics UV-Vis-NIR FLAME spectrometers

Initial capabilities of the Imaging and Spectroscopy Core include:

  • Label-free multiphoton microscopy of NADH and FAD autofluorescence for in vivo or in vitro assessments of cell metabolism
  • Diffuse optical spectroscopy for in vivo studies of tissue oxygenation
  • Standard laser scanning confocal microscopy for live cell and tissue imaging
  • High-resolution Raman microscopy of biological tissue, cells, and materials
