Dear all, The argon laser is working again without any actions. Whether this is 'the start of the end' of the argon laser is something that has to be evaluated over the coming days-weeks. So, please inform Daniel or me in case if you notice something. Thanks in advance, Best regards, Evelien

Dear SP2 users,

The argon laser (with lines 458,476,488,496,514) is not working anymore. The other lines (561, 594 and 633) are fine. Please keep this in mind for your experiments. The PI imaging, which is often done on this confocal, can still be done using the 561 to excite. GFP-imaging is not possible anymore.

I will inform you when the new laser is installed.

Best greetings,

Evelien
