Biomedical Imaging Facilities

The Core Facility Imaging (CFI) of the Martin-Luther-University Halle-Wittenberg provides access to high-resolution microscopy including confocal laser scanning microscopy (SP8X and SP5X, Leica) as well as epi-fluorescence microscopy (Nikon and Incucyte S3, Sartorius). Our equipment is designed to allow high-resolution as well as live cell imaging including techniques like FRAP, FRET or photoconversion. Our Biocope Catalyst (Bruker) combines atomic force measurements with fluorescence microscopy. Furthermore, the CFI provides expertise and equipment for Flow Cytometry analyses (MacsQuant X, Miltenyi), real-time PCR (384well) as well as Infrared scanning (Odyssey CLx and Pearl, LICOR) of Western blots, in-cell-Western or small animal in vivo imaging as well as Next generation sequencing (NextSeq 1000). In addition to providing high-end instruments, we offer unassisted as well as assisted services, training on instruments and software solutions for the automated analyses of images and live cell applications as well as NGS data analyses.
