- Description
- The Biological Imaging Section (BIS) of RTB (both collectively �Program�), provides expertise, instruction, and instrumentation in optical microscopy to all NIAID investigators and therefore, has a history of providing novel technologies when they become available.� Staff members are available to assist in experimental design and in the collection and analysis of the high-quality images of living and fixed material.� Techniques include confocal, fluorescence, intravital and video microscopy, as well as post collection quantification and deconvolution.� Acquisition of state-of-the-art technologies promotes the overall mission of the DIR, NIAID by providing tools to advance projects in basic and clinical research.� Imaging has become central to many DIR studies in the field of parasitology, virology, and immunology.� In particular, confocal microscopy with its high resolution and multiple channels of data is most appropriate for collecting images of multiply labelled tissue sections or cells.� These data are used for determining colocalization of proteins, expression levels of tagged molecules, and location of parasites.� At the present time collection of data from samples with many probes (up to 10) over large areas of tissue has become a priority to understanding the immune system. In order to continue to provide for the needs of NIAID researchers, the RTB must continue to upgrade and expand its instruments.� To this end, state-of-the-art instrumentation was needed. This was an acquisition for an Insight X3 Dual-067 laser (�Newport laser�) manufactured by Newport Corporation�s Spectra Physics division.
