[Confocal] micro-injection installed on CLSM
by Evelien Mylle 27 Apr '16

27 Apr '16

Dear confocal users, A demo micro-injection system has been installed on the CLSM. It looks quit impressive and a lot of extra holders, boxes and joysticks are present. Please take care of these things, don't move them. For the rest, you can use the confocal as normal. In case of questions, don't hesitate to contact Daniel or me. Greetings, Evelien Evelien Mylle Lab Manager / Technician Tel:+32 (0)9 331 39 34 Department of Plant Systems Biology VIB, Ghent University Technologiepark 927 9052 Ghent, Belgium http://www.psb.ugent.be

[Confocal] piezo stage spinning disc
by Daniel Van Damme 22 Mar '16

22 Mar '16

Dear microscopy users, I am sending this mail to all of you as I do not want to miss anyone who is not subscribed to the confocal mailing list. If you use the confocals frequently, do inscribe to the confocal mailing list (https://intranet.psb.ugent.be/mail-lists) to receive all the mails concerning confocal microscopy within PSB. The good news is that after 3 months, the piezo stage of the spinning disc is repaired and can be used again. However, please be aware that this is an extremely delicate piece of equipment. This means that under no conditions, pressure may be applied to it (not even placing your hand on it while mounting your sample). Also, take care not to spill any immersion fluid (oil, water) on it. Any liquid which goes in between the two halves of the piezo will destroy it. Have fun imaging, d -- Daniel Van Damme Expert scientist Tel:+32 (0)9 331 39 13 Department of Plant Systems Biology VIB, Ghent University Technologiepark 927 9052 Ghent, Belgium http://www.psb.ugent.be

[Confocal] Olympus FLuoview operational again: no personal log in anymore, weak connection to microscope
by Evelien Mylle 21 Mar '16

21 Mar '16

Dear imaging people, The computer has been reinstalled by our IT and is operational again. Some changements or attention points: -There is no personal log in anymore. The situation is now similar as with the other confocal systems. Start the computer, no personal log in needed, map the network drives and launch the software. To stop, close the software, unmap the network drives, if needed switch the computer off. DO NOT CHANGE USER OR LOG OFF! - There is an issue with a cable at the back of the computer that sometimes causes bad connection to the microscope. For the moment connection is OK, so please don't touch them. Also avoid touching the computer with your feet! Only if you would encounter no connection to the microscope (when launching the software you do not get the panels for imaging, only windows explorer), you can contact Daniel or me, or you can enforce the cables again. The IT will look into the problem soon. Don't hesitate to contact Daniel or me in case of problems.
