Equipment
Nanomanipulator of individual molecules based on TIRF and optical tweezer
The LUMICKS C-Trap EDGE 350 allows simultaneous TIRF measurements in three channels (488nm, 532nm and 638nm), imaging of fibres or other structures on the glass surface without labels (IRM - Interference Reflection Microscopy), and the use of optical tweezers for sample manipulation and force measurements. The instrument is coupled to a 6 channel microfluidic system. The single-molecule nanomanipulator thus combines three optical methods to detect molecules and particle movements with an accuracy of up to 1 nanometre.
