Nikon TIRF/N-STORM

The TIRF/STORM microscope has a single inverted microscope stand that functions as both a TIRF microscope and super-resolution STORM microscope. TIRF microscope acquires high-resolution fluorescence images of thin samples. STORM can be used for super-resolved detail of thin samples. Fast two-color imaging can be done with the dual camera configuration.  High-resolution single color images can be acquired with the sCMOS camera.
