FLUOVIEW—More Advanced than Ever

The Olympus FLUOVIEW FV1000 confocal laser scanning microscope delivers

efficient and reliable performance together with the high resolution required for

multi-dimensional observation of cell and tissue morphology, and precise

molecular localization. The FV1000 incorporates the industry’s first dedicated

laser light stimulation scanner to achieve simultaneous targeted laser stimulation

and imaging for real-time visualization of rapid cell responses. The FV1000 also

measures diffusion coefficients of intracellular molecules, quantifying molecular

kinetics. Quite simply, the FLUOVIEW FV1000 represents a new plateau, bringing

“imaging to analysis.”

Olympus continues to drive forward the development of FLUOVIEW

microscopes, using input from researchers to meet their evolving demands and

bringing “imaging to analysis.”

Scanners/Detection

High Sensitivity Detection System

High-sensitivity and high S/N ratio optical

performance is achieved through the

integration of a pupil projection lens, use

of a high sensitivity photomultiplier tube

and an analog processing circuit with

minimal noise. Enables high S/N ratio

image acquisition with minimal laser power

to reduce phototoxicity.

Up to Four PMT Channels

Three integrated confocal PMT detectors,

and optional module with fourth confocal

PMT expandable up to four PMT channels.

Two Versions of Light Detection System

• Spectral detection for high-precision

spectroscopy with 2 nm resolution.

UIS2 Objectives

Olympus UIS2 objectives offer world-

leading, infinity-corrected optics that

deliver unsurpassed optical performance

over a wide range of wavelengths.

High S/N Ratio Objectives with

Suppressed Autofluorescence

Olympus offers a line of high numerical

aperture objectives with improved

fluorescence S/N ratio, including

objectives with exceptional correction for

chromatic aberration, oil- and water-

immersion objectives, and total internal

reflection fluorescence (TIRF) objectives.

Spectral Based Detection

Flexibility and High Sensitivity

Spectral detection using gratings

for 2 nm wavelength resolution

and image acquisition matched to

fluorescence wavelength peaks.

User adjustable bandwidth of

emission spectrum for acquiring

bright images with minimal cross-

talk.

Precise Spectral Imaging

The spectral detection unit uses a grating method that offers

linear dispersion compared with prism dispersion. The unit

provides 2 nm wavelength resolution to high-sensitivity

photomultiplier tube detectors. Fluorescence separation can be

achieved through unmixing, even when cross-talk is generated

by multiple fluorescent dyes with similar peaks.

Two Versions of Light Detection System that Set New Standards

for Optical Performance.

Filter Based Detection

Enhanced Sensitivity

Three-channel scan unit with detection system featuring hard

coated filter base. High-transmittance and high S/N ratio optical

performance is achieved through integration of a pupil projection

lens within the optics, the use of a high sensitivity photomultiplier

and an analog processing circuit with minimal noise.

High-Performance Filters Deliver Outstanding Separation

Special coatings deliver exceptionally sharp transitions to a

degree never achieved before, for acquisition of brighter

fluorescence images.

Technology / Hardware

SIM (Simultaneous) Scanner Unit

Combines the main scanner with a dedicated laser light

stimulation scanner for investigating the trafficking of fluorescent-

labeled molecules and marking of specific live cells.

Simultaneous Laser Light Stimulation and Imaging

Performs simultaneous laser light stimulation and imaging to

acquire images of immediate cell responses to

stimulation in photobleaching experiments.

Modifiable Stimulation Area During Imaging

The stimulation area can be moved to a different position on the

cell during imaging, providing a powerful tool for photoactivation

and photoconversion experiments.

Wide Choice of Bleaching Modes

Various scan modes can be used for both the observation area

and stimulation area. Enables free-form bleaching of designated

points, lines, free-lines, rectangles and circles.

Laser Sharing with Main Scanner

Dual fiber laser combiner provides laser sharing between the SIM

scanner and main scanner, eliminating the need to add a

separate laser for stimulation.

Unique "Tornado" Scanning for Efficient Bleaching

Conventional raster scanning does not always complete

photobleaching quickly. Tornado scanning greatly improves

bleaching efficiency by significantly reducing unnecessary

scanning.

Low Chromatic Aberration Objective

Best Reliability for Colocalization Analysis

A new high NA oil-immersion objective minimizes chromatic

aberration in the 405–650 nm region for enhanced imaging

performance and image resolution at 405 nm. Delivers a high

degree of correction for both lateral and axial chromatic

aberration, for acquisition of 2D and 3D images with excellent

and reliable accuracy, and improved colocalization analysis. The

objective also compensates for chromatic aberration in the near

infrared up to 850 nm.
