iXon^EM Blue EMCCD Camera

Applications

• Ultracool Atomic Physics - Ytterbium (369 nm), Europium (370 nm) and Calcium (397 nm) ions
• Cherenkov radiation
• Second Harmonic Generation
• Astronomy
• Sonoluminescence
• Marine bioluminescence
• Fura-2 calcium signalling
• Luminol chemiluminescence
• Alexa Fluor 250/405/430
• Blue intercalating fluorophores (e.g. DAPI)
• Karyotyping and other chromosome/DNA studies
• Nanodiamond detection

Live cell processes/mechanisms that can be studied using blue emitting fluorophores include:

• Calcium signaling
• Intracellular tracking
• Membrane fusion
• Neuronal tracing
• Cell lineage
• Fluid dynamics (e.g. with blue-labelled dextrans)
• Viability and Cytotoxicity Assays
• Cell Adhesion
• Apoptosis
• Chemotaxis
• Multidrug Resistance
