Brève description :
The Zeiss Lattice Light Sheet Microscope 7 is a light sheet microscope with structured light for 3D imaging of live and fluorescent sample with a maximum of 100µm thickness. The 3D acquisitions are fast and induce less photobleaching and photoxicity thanks to the excitation in single plane.
Objectives:
-excitation equivalent to 13.3X 0.4 NA
-emission equivalent to 44.8X 1.0 NA with a free-form phase lens to correct the thickness of the coverslip
-miniscus lens with water immersion between the emission objective and the coverslip of the sample.

Detector :
1 sCMOS Hamamatsu ORCA Fusion camera
(2048*2048, 6.5µm pixel size)
Mode of acquisitions:
lsequential multi-color light sheet imaging, X-stacks, multi-positions, mosaics, multi-time points.

Controled by the Zen blue 3.7 software.
Processing of images by deconvolution, deskew, cover glass transformation.
Excitation sources:
diode 488nm
diode 561nm
diode 640nm
5 light sheet structured by a SLM (Spatial Light Modulator) with variable lengh x thickness :
15µm x 550nm; 15µm x 650nm; 30µm x 700nm; 30µm x 1000nm; 100µm x 1400nm; 100µm x 1800nm.

Spectral selection:
BP 570-620 + LP 655
BP 495-550 + LP655
Sample Support:
the sample is preparaed as usual for inverted microscope, the sample support has to have a bottom glass 0.17mm thick.
The motorized stage can have specific inserts for 35mm dish, slide and multi-well labtek.

Incubation:
tempretaure from RT to 40°C
CO2 from 0 to 5%

Incubation:
temperature between 10 and 40°C and CO2 control
Acquisition modes:
Light sheet imaging in multi-channels mode (widefield or confocal), in multi-Z stacks, in multi-timepoints, in multi-angles with the sample rotation
Z-piezo stage with 20nm resolution, XY stage with 100nm resolution and sample rotation in 360° angle
Illumination sources:
laser 488nm
laser 515nm
laser 561nm
laser 642nm
Light sheet generated with a digital light scanner

Spectral selection:
5 emission filters in a filter wheel
GFP (488 LP)
GFP en combinaison (525/50 BP)
YFP (535/30 BP)
Cherry (561 LP)
FarRed (642 LP)
Sample carriers:
the sample is prepared in a glass capillary either embedded in a gel or loaded in a well formed in the gel. This capillary is charged in the sample carrier on the stage.
Each project done on this MuViSPIM needs specific development for the sample preparation
