QuScite – A Versatile TIRF Add-on for Any Microscope
Description
In this video, Dr. Pierre Türschmann, founder and CEO of Interference GmbH, introduces QuScite, a waveguide-based TIRF (Total Internal Reflection Fluorescence) add-on designed to work seamlessly with any inverted microscope. By simply mounting QuScite onto the 2D or piezo stage, users can easily integrate TIRF capabilities into their existing setup. Dr. Türschmann explains the underlying waveguide excitation principle and demonstrates how QuScite operates. The video also highlights a range of exciting applications, from live cell imaging to advanced single molecule localization microscopy (SMLM), showcasing the versatility and power of QuScite in cutting-edge research.
