Confocal-like quality

Lateral resolution down to 180 nm for unmatched detail

Join us for an immersive hands-on workshop that brings you face-to-face with confocal-like image quality with your widefield microscope, where you can analyze your own samples and directly unleash the power of optical sectioning down to 180 nm.

This event is specifically designed for scientists who want to delve into the latest imaging techniques, enabling them to explore and optimize their own workflows with the support of experts from ZEISS Microscopy. 

What Happens at ZOYC?

Seminar Day
Hear from ZEISS experts. Understand structured illumination and see how it removes out-of-focus light. Learn how to create optical sections, enhance resolution, and capture 3D images.

Hands-On Days
Image your own samples with ZEISS Apotome Plus. Work with advanced optical sectioning. Discover details hidden in thick specimens and complex samples.

Why Join?

  • Expand your understanding of fluorescence imaging.
  • Gain hands-on experience with Apotome Plus.
  • Take new insights into your research.

Who is it for?
You, if you work with microscopy in research, life sciences, or imaging.

What is ZEISS Apotome Plus?
Apotome Plus uses structured illumination to eliminate blur in fluorescence microscopy. It produces sharp, reliable optical sections and enhances 3D rendering. It resolves structures down to 180 nm with minimal effort.

Reliable Optical Sections

Under Varying Experimental Conditions

Apotome 3 significantly increases the axial resolution compared to conventional fluorescence widefield microscopy: You obtain optical sections that allow 3D rendering, even from thick specimens. Three grids of different geometries give you the best resolution for each objective. You can focus on your experiment as the ideal illumination structure is automatically selected, always resulting in high-contrast optical sections.

Peer-reviewed Algorithms

Linear Approaches for True Optical Sections

Purely software-based methods require either prior knowledge of the sample (AI based methods) or rely on complex algorithms that have not been peer-reviewed. Users must trust that these black-box solutions do not falsify information when “enhancing” the image. ZEISS Apotome 3 uses the information from the structured illumination combined with documented algorithms to create a crisp optical section you can trust.

Confocal-like Image Quality

180 nm Resolution with Apotome Plus

Resolve details that were not visible before with your widefield microscope: With Apotome Plus, you can obtain structural information at lateral resolution down to 180 nm. The combination of structured illumination with state-of-the-art image processing substantially improves the signal-to-noise ratio and resolution in x, y, and z.
