The Department of Physiology within the Faculty of Medical and Health Sciences at the University of Auckland requires the purchase of a Physiological Imaging Platform System. This is a confocal microscope that is specifically configured for simultaneous physiological recording and confocal imaging.
The proposed upright confocal microscope will be used for imaging of living preparations with simultaneous monitoring and recording of physiological, electrophysiological and neurophysiological signals. The system will be specially designed and integrated into a unique experimental platform containing the essential physiological apparatus and electronics to enable measurements of multi-modal variables. A specialised microscope stage will allow a range of living preparations to be studied such as in vivo anaesthetised rats and mice, artificially arterially perfused preparations, and tissue slices. The microscope will be equipped to allow control of temperature, humidity, oxygen, carbon dioxide and pH of the samples/preparations being imaged.
