ONI Nanoimager S single molecule localisation microscopy (SMLM) system designed for smFRET and single molecule tracking. The CMOS camera can be used to simultaneously acquire images from two fluorescence channels. The beam-splitter sends far red light to one channel and blue, green or orange light to the other. Ideal fluorophores are Cy3 and Cy5, or dyes with similar spectra. Note that the system is optimised for the Cy3/Cy5 FRET pair and it is not possible to simultaneously image samples labelled with both green and red fluorophores (e.g. EGFP and mCherry).

Other advantages of the system are the speed and field of view of the CMOS camera and built-in microfluidics. The analysis software is freely available for installation (Windows 10 PC required).

Use for:

  • Simultaneous dual-channel single molecule localisation microscopy
  • smFRET
  • Single molecule tracking
  • Microfluidics for single molecule imaging
