Dear All

We have isolated mitochondria from human cells and want to see them in
confocal microscope. Can someone tell which objective should i use for this

Could you please tell what exactly you are going to image and what is the label?
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)

I am also trying to localize mitochondria in fish macrophages using
mitotracker. What I am getting is greenish tinge of mitotracker at x 100
objective. Can u please suggest me if there is some software for digital
zooming
Regards
Chaitali

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.

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.

I am a PhD stuent from University of Dlehi, India. 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.

Hi Chaitali,
Did you perform the control sample along with your experimental sample,
which microscope/ software you used for colocalization analysis?

Hi Manish
I have used both control and treated sample. I am using Zeiss automated
microscope and using 100x. Can u please tell me in which campus you are
working-mall road or mathura road. I am in north campus,Delhi. I can come
to meet u then.
