Nikon Ti-U Inverted Fluorescence & DIC Microscope Electrophysiology Rig with Sutter MP-285 and HEKA EPC 10 Patch Clamp
Product Description
The Nikon Ti-U Electrophysiology Rig is a comprehensive, fully manual inverted fluorescence microscope setup optimized for advanced electrophysiology applications, including patch clamp studies and live-cell imaging. Key components include:
-
Nikon Eclipse Ti-U inverted microscope featuring:
- Brightfield with Differential Interference Contrast (DIC)
- Fluorescence microscopy with motorized 6-position filter turret
- Fluorescence filter cubes (DAPI, FITC, Texas Red, Cy3), customizable for specific fluorochromes
- EXFO X-Cite 120 Metal Halide fluorescence illumination
- PRIOR Brightfield LED illumination
- LWD 0.52 condenser and DIC NI condenser insert
-
Sutter MP-285 Micromanipulator system with joystick controller and mechanical XY stage (70 x 50 mm travel), enabling precise micromanipulation essential for patch clamp and gene editing workflows widely adopted in synthetic biology research.
-
HEKA EPC 10 USB digital patch clamp amplifier with PatchMaster v2x92 software and license dongle, delivering high-resolution electrophysiological recording capabilities critical in neurophysiology and molecular diagnostics.
-
Faraday cage enclosure for electromagnetic interference shielding, complemented by TMC Anti-Vibration Table with Gimbal Piston Air Isolators to ensure vibration-free, stable imaging—key for bioprocessing and live-cell electrophysiology.
-
Optical system equipped with Nikon APO CFI60 high-quality objectives (4x/0.13 Plan Fluor, 10x/0.30 Plan Fluor DIC, 20x/0.75 Plan Apo VC), supporting magnification range from 40x to 200x (expandable up to 1000x on request).
-
Imaging facilitated by Bestscope 8.3MP color CMOS camera with advanced software tools for image acquisition, annotation, calibration, and quantitative analysis—ideal for cell imaging, molecular cloning workflows, and biopharmaceutical production analysis.
-
Manual optical path and mechanical components minimize electromagnetic interference, enhancing recording fidelity for electrophysiological and fluorescence measurements.
-
Configurable options include phase contrast, higher magnification objectives, additional fluorescence filters, upgraded light sources (Xenon, Metal Halide, LED), and advanced CCD, sCMOS, or EMCCD cameras tailored to biotechnology and clinical diagnostic research needs.
Applications:
This versatile rig is essential for biotechnology research, molecular biology, neuroscience electrophysiology, live-cell imaging, fluorescence analysis, and biomedical engineering. It supports workflows vital in gene editing, synthetic biology, molecular diagnostics, and biomanufacturing by enabling precise electrophysiological recordings alongside high-resolution fluorescence imaging.
Included Accessories and Support:
- Complete pre-owned system serviced to meet rigorous quality standards
- Warranty covering parts and labor
- Optional remote or in-person training for microscope and PatchMaster software operation
- Customization to fit specific lab requirements including alternative inverted microscopes (Zeiss Axio Observer, Olympus IX70/IX71/IX73)
- Comprehensive technical consultation to optimize configurations for your research domain
This Nikon Ti-U Electrophysiology Rig with Sutter MP-285 micromanipulator and HEKA EPC 10 amplifier delivers a highly stable, interference-free platform widely utilized in electrophysiology and fluorescence microscopy laboratories, supporting advanced studies in molecular cloning, cellular physiology, and biopharmaceutical production pipelines.
