The Facility focuses on fluorescence microscopy and transmission microscopy techniques to local researchers. Here is a brief list of technologies researchers use in the Facility:

1. General light microscopy services: phase, DIC, mulit-color fluorescence microscopy.


2. Advanced fluorescence microscopy technology:
1. Multi-dimensional (fluorescence) time-lapse microscopy.
2. Deconvolution microscopy.
3. Molecular interaction techniques (FRET (Fluorescence Resonance Energy Transfer); FCS (Fluorescence Correlative Spectroscopy);
4. Photomanipulations:  Photoactivation/switching; FRAP (Fluorescence Recovery After Photobleaching), FLIP, laser microdissection or trapping, etc.
5. Fluorescence lifetime Imaging (FLIM).
6. Spectral imaging.


3. Super resolution microscopy - STED


4. Transmission electron microscopy - bright field, dark field.


5. Advanced TEM microscopy:
1. Tomography,
2. CryoTEM: high pressure sample freezing, freeze substitution, Cryothin sectioning, CryoTEM observation
3. Immuno-gold labeling,
4. Electron Energy Loss Spectroscopy


6. Microinjection
