Dear LSM User,

I am turning to you on behalf of a small spin-off company, associated
with the Biological
Research Center (BRC) of the Hungarian Academy of Sciences, Szeged.
As part of our market research, we would like to ask your opinion on the
possible use
of polarization spectroscopic tools in LSMs.

Please kindly fill in and return to us the following short questionnaire
(put a + or x sign):

Do you use polarized light in LSM imaging?
[ ] Yes
[ ] No

Are you interested in imaging differential polarization quantities?
[ ] Yes
[ ] No

If yes, please indicate importance (0: do not know, 1 not important, 5:
very important)
[ ] LD (linear dichroism)
[ ] FDLD (fluorescence detected linear dichroism)
[ ] r (anisotropy of the emitted light – upon non-polarized excitation)
[ ] P (degree of polarization of the fluorescence)
[ ] LB (linear birefringence)
[ ] CD (circular dichroism)
[ ] FDCD (fluorescence detected circular dichroism)
[ ] CPL (circular polarization of luminescence)
[ ] other, please specify: .............

Would you like to know more about DP measurements in (confocal) LSMs?
[ ] Yes
[ ] No

Please describe your field of interest and the problem in which
polarization and/or DP imaging might be of use:
............

Thank you for your help, please send your answers/comments to [hidden email]
For more information DP imaging, including biological applications,
please visit the website: www.brc.hu/dplsm

Sincerely yours,
Prof Gyozo Garab, Dr. Istvan Pomozi, Gabor Steinbach
