BASIC INFORMATION

  • Make & Model : Confocal TCS SP8.
  • Department : Biotechnology and Medical Engineering
  • Location : Confocal Microscopic Lab, Tissue Engineering ( Room No.130)
  • Category : Category - I
  • Status : Functional

PRINCIPLE:

The principle of confocal imaging was patented in 1957 by Marvin Minsky and aims to overcome some limitations of traditional wide-field fluorescence microscopes. In a conventional (i.e., wide-field) fluorescence microscope, the entire specimen is flooded evenly in light from a light source. All parts of the specimen in the optical path are excited at the same time and the resulting fluorescence is detected by the microscopes photodetector or camera including a large unfocused background part. In contrast, a confocal microscope uses point illumination and a pinhole in an optically conjugate plane in front of the detector to eliminate out-of-focus signal – the name "confocal" stems from this configuration. As only light produced by fluorescence very close to the focal plane can be detected, the images optical resolution, particularly in the sample depth direction, is much better than that of wide-field microscopes. However, as much of the light from sample fluorescence is blocked at the pinhole, this increased resolution is at the cost of decreased signal intensity – so long exposures are often required. To offset this drop in signal after the pinhole, the light intensity is detected by a sensitive detector, usually a PMT or avalanche photodiode, transforming the light signal into an electrical one that is recorded by a computer

APPLICATION:

In recent years confocal microscopy has been adapted into numerous fields - such as cell biology, life sciences, semiconductor inspection, materials science, neuroanatomy, and neurophysiology. Key applications areas include: Stem cell research, Photobleaching studies, Fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET), Fluorescence recovery after photo-bleaching, Fluorescence in-situ hybridization, Lifetime imaging, Multiphoton microscopy, Total internal reflection fluorescence microscopy (TIRFM), DNA hybridization, Membrane and ion probes, Bioluminescent proteins, Epitope tagging etc.
