Question about LSM510 software

Search the CONFOCAL archive at
http://listserv.acsu.buffalo.edu/cgi-bin/wa?S1=confocal

Dear all,

I am practice FRAP on Zeiss LSM 510-META.

Right now I do know how to induce the bleach and record the recovery curve
of ROI(by using click "MeanROI" in time series control ). But everytime at the
end of recording, only the curves are saved. So my question is can I save the
series of image data as well as the  curve?

Another question is after induce bleach I need to restart the scanning and
draw the ROI to measure the mean intensity of them. I always worry about
that I might miss the ROI where bleaching happens. Does anyone here know
how to do it in a proper way?

I really appreciate any help!

Thanks,


Yi

I am not sure if there is a way to save both the curve and the images, although it would be nice and useful to see the curve in real time, I usually do the FRAP experiments in our LSM510 meta just saving the images, I look at the curve off line, its very easy to reload the images and use the MeanROI to get the curve from the saved images.

regarding savin g the ROI you used for bleaching, there is an option to save the ROI from the ROI editing window. You can always retrieve it later when using the Mean ROI function... just look at the ROI listing.

Dear Yi,

You cannot directly save the curve -except you want to work on a
screenshot- but you can select to show a table containing the plotted
values, these values can be exported to another software to regenerate
the graph.

There is a 'ROI' folder somewhere in the AIM tree containing the
position coordinates of the ROIs you generated. To read data from the
bleached region, you can recall the ROI from a list as described by
Leoncio.

Just as a FRAP aside: be careful with the bleaching power. You can
easily achieve powers sufficient to influence molecular interactions
with a standard 15mW laser...

Cheers, jens

You can not save the curve directly but you can export it and save the curve.

Hi
At the end of your FRAP exp. you have a series of images when you go to gallery mode you can see all of them i.e. a pre-bleach, bleach and post bleach images.The recovery curve and the image series can be exported into  tiff fromat seperately and then saved so that you get both the images.
When you save an image with ROI it will show only that ROI in the image so you should be able to do your intensity measurememtns.Be careful while starting a fresh exp. you have to delete the exsisting ROI in the 'DEFINE REGION option of the Bleach Control and add a new one by giving it a diffrent name.If you do not delete you will get the previous ROI as well in your image.
The procedure for carrying out FRAP is mentioned in the help menu as 'FRAP GUIDE'provided you have the analysis software available i.e KINETIC'.
In short,
-Set the appropriate configurations as well as scan parameters.
-Go to edit bleach option and do appropriate settings.
-Define regions to be bleached.
-Set a time series by giving the time intervals and number of images.
-Say Start B.
You could just try the above. Best luck.

Hi, Yi - there is a well-hidden setting in the Options --> Settings Menu.
Look for "Scan Mean of ROIs" - there are check boxes for scanning and saving
the entire image.

In the newer versions of the software, the ROI should be saved with the
image. Otherwise, retrieve acc to Leoncio's advise.

Best,
 Holly

Thanks guys for all the suggestions!
 
As for the bleaching power, how should I know it is sufficient and not too much to kill the cells?
Some protocol said to increase the power to 100% which sounds scary.
I think there must be lots of tricky to set up the power of bleaching and iteracy time?
