No, i have not yet seen any of the spinning disk systems. Yokogawa is very famous but i really want to know that how reasonable is to buy a laser based multipoint scanning system than buying fluorescence based spinning disk. (we already have single point scanning system, one only confocal and another confocal with live cell, both laser based.) --- On Wed, 30/12/09, Vergara, Leoncio A. <[hidden email]> wrote: From: Vergara, Leoncio A. <[hidden email]> Subject: Re: Spinning disk requirement To: [hidden email] Date: Wednesday, 30 December, 2009, 4:12 PM have you tested the Olympus DSU?

Subject: Spinning disk requirement Dear All I request all the members to please help me to decide for a spinning disk confocal microscope for our facility which is a multiuser facility for the whole university. We already have a point scanning confocal system from Olympus. We will have another point scanning confocal soon with all the live cell imaging accessories (laser based). For very fast phenomenon like measuring Calcium Flux in the cells, we want to have a multi point scanning system. But i am unable to decide whether i should take a fluorescence based spinning disk or laser based spinning disk confocal. Also, please give me some feedback for CARV II (multi point confocal, fluorescence based). Please help. Thanks in advance.
