The Biomedical Imaging Research Unit (BIRU) within the Faculty of Medical and Health Sciences is a well-established research platform that provides optical and electron microscopy technologies and expertise, including confocal microscopy.

BIRU requires a replacement upright confocal microscope. This fully automated laser-scanning confocal microscope must support imaging of samples on slides such as fixed tissue sections, bacteria, and other samples that cannot be turned upside-down for imaging. It must be able to support imaging of materials samples such as microfluidic devices. It must also be capable of imaging live cells and organisms such as cell cultures and zebrafish on plates.

The system must be equipped with highly-sensitive detectors for fluorescence imaging, a transmitted light detector, suitable laser lines, motorised components, incubation, and a wide range of objective lenses.
In addition, all capabilities must be software-controlled and provide the ability to perform z-stack, time-lapse, and photoactivation experiments.

This tender has been awarded.
