The platform provides several advanced light- and electron microscopes suitable for routine applications as well as specialized methods. The platform also provides users with access to licensed software for object-based image quantitation (Volocity) and deconvolution (Huygens).
Other instruments include a Biostation for timelapse imaging of cultured cells and a zoom microscope for imaging in model organisms (e.g. zebra fish).
The Electron microscope (EM) machine park consists of 2 TEM- and 2 state of the art SEM-electron microscopes. Futher more the EM section has a considerably instrument park to prepare specimens for the electron microscopes.
In addition the platform provides flow cytometry (Fortessa, 4 lasers) and cell sorting facilities (Aria 1 with 3 lasers and Aria 3 with 4 lasers.
AMCF hosts every second year a correlative light/electron microscopy (CLEM) PhD course (MBI-8003), as part of the MedIm national research school.
The core facility has a staff of specialists using the instruments in range of techniques and methods. We offer technical assistans if needed.
