Microfocus rotating anode X ray generator.Used for Protein crystallography, small molecule crystallography, SAXS, micro diffraction, phase contrast imaging. Home lab X-ray source for protein crystallography and a popular source for small molecule crystallographers who need the additional flux of a rotating anode generator. The original MicroMax 007 introduced the world to the concept of a sub-100 micron focal spot size along the increased brilliance that can be more effectively used to illuminate small crystals. The current HF version increases the power loading by 50% over the original model providing an X-ray source that rivals second generation synchrotron sources - but with better beam stability and, of course, easy access.

Confocal microscopy can improve conventional fluorescence images by recording fluorescence generated from the focal plane within the sample, while rejecting all other light coming from above or below the focal plane. The efficient point-scan/pinhole-detection confocal optics of the FluoView systems virtually eliminate out of focus light to produce high-contrast images with superb resolution. The FluoView systems are fully integrated workstations that incorporate user-friendly image acquisition and image analysis software with high-resolution confocal optics that require no user alignment. An , Windows-based graphic user interface allows new users to quickly generate images in various scan modes, such as XY, XZ, XT, XYZ, XYT, and XYZT. Standard image formats, including TIFF and AVI, permit easy, direct export of FluoView images to off-line analysis packages. XY scanning is performed with a pair of galvanometric mirrors, yielding a wide scanning range to cover up to a field number of 20. The optical zoom (up to 10x magnification) can be performed by narrowing the scanning range while maintaining the maximum pixel resolution of up to 2048 x 2048 pixels.
