The BC43 is a benchtop spinning disk confocal system designed for fixed sample imaging on an inverted stand. Spinning disks are a faster alternative to traditional point-scanning confocal microscopes. The system is equipped with four laser lines for fluorescence excitation, allowing up to four channels in a single experiment, along with a transmitted light channel. Montage images can be easily acquired using the fully automated stage and Fusion software. Fusion also incorporates the Imaris ClearView deconvolution algorithm as a post-processing step to enhance image contrast. Image files are saved in the .ims format, which can be opened directly in Imaris for downstream analysis or exported as OME TIFF files for use on other platforms.
