The University is soliciting prospective proponents to submit proposals for a Widefield Epifluorescence Inverted Microscope.A widefield epifluorescence inverted microscope is required for high-resolution imaging of a variety of samples. These include fixed samples of mammalian cells cultured on glass coverslips, cells cultured on thicker silicone-based substrates, tumour organoids in Matrigel, and hydrogel-embedded samples used for Expansion Microscopy. The system should be configured to enable live-cell imaging in the future using a stage-top incubation system.Priority is given to the quality of the optics of the system to provide high-resolution epifluorescence microscopy. Optical sectioning is required and can be achieved through hardware or software-based (i.e. deconvolution) solutions. An anti-vibration table is not required.MANDATORY TECHNICAL REQUIREMENTS1.Microscope Stand 1.1The microscope must be in an Inverted configuration1.2Must be compatible with stage-top incubation for live imaging1.3Must have fully motorized light path control for transmitted and reflected light1.5Must have a fully encoded and motorised objective nosepiece1.6Must have a height adjustable condenser to provide clearance for incubation system2Microscope Stage2.1Stage must be Fully Motorized in X, Y, and Z dimensions3.Light source and light path3.1Must have an LED light source for transmitted light3.2Must have an LED light source for fluorescence excitation4.Emission Filter Sets:4.1Must have a filt...
