Are you going to perform some quantitative imgaing or just make sure that your sample really contains mitochondria? What is the cell type? Mitchondria are well visible for 1.2 NA objective (TMRE staining, lymphocytes) and qualitatively visible while using NA 1 objective if cells are spreaded (MitoTracker Green, Vero cells) Best Sergey Tauger PhD student Cell motility lab.

To join, leave or search the confocal microscopy listserv, go to: http://lists.umn.edu/cgi-bin/wa?A0=confocalmicroscopy ***** You don't need a specific objective to see mitochondria. You first need a good staining. Best results are achieved with mitochondrial targeted FPs or through immunofluorescence of mitochondrial proteins (TOM20, TOM40, HSP60 and many others). Otherwise, if you want to use mitotracker dyes, you need to set up dye concentration and loading time to obtain good results.

To join, leave or search the confocal microscopy listserv, go to: http://lists.umn.edu/cgi-bin/wa?A0=confocalmicroscopy ***** Given the gmail accounts and lack of affiliation, are you and Chaitali working together? Are you looking for signal or resolution? Do you have a suitable camera? An overly corrected objective, low NA or phase objectives will all reduce signal. Mitotrackers in zebrafish can be detected in widefield or confocal with a 40X/.75 (or 20X + 2X zoom) air lens, and easily recorded with NA 1.0-1.2. I hope you are not trying to look through a plastic culture dish. Do you have any experience with live imaging, microscopy or dye loading? Have you looked in the literature? There are many papers using Mitotrackers, and in zebrafish. Providing a description of your instrumentation, experimental intent and sample preparations when you ask for assistance will avoid a game of “20 Questions”. Mitotrackers require testing for concentration, incubation times, temperature, etc. before embarking on any experiment but the literature will provide starting points. Overloading can reduce intensity (by disrupting mitochondrial function), and is a common beginner’s mistake. try 25 nM to 100 nM, 20-30 min. or shorter. MT Red is brighter, use no more than 25 nM, Deep Red behaves like MT Green, bt possibly a bit voltage sensitive. Digital zoom will not improve signal, it sometimes helps with visibility on the screen.

Currently I am performing some experiments with mito tracker and ER tracker and was studying mitochondrial movement towards ER. When i tried co localization i was nt happy with my results. I am using 10 nm of mitotracker & er tracker.When i looked into literature i got sm pictures like what i hv got, but I found that they further digitally magnified the images several fold. I tried with the photoshop & imagej to get the best magnificatn. But still nt much convincd. Any suggestn please.
