Description

For confocal and fluorescence microscope calibration

The FocalCheck fluorescence microscope test slide #1 is specifically designed for calibrating fluorescence microscope systems and evaluating system and filter performance. The slide contains 10 sample areas coated with FocalCheck ring stained microspheres ranging in size from 0.5-15μm that provide a visual representation of instrument misalignment or other aberrations in row A; row B contains a series of microspheres with fluorescence intensities ranging from 0.667-100%.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

What are the excitation/emission wavelengths for the beads in FocalCheck Fluorescence Microscope Test Slide #1, for alignment, intensity, & calibration (Cat. No. F36909)?

The spectral characteristics are as follows:

  • A1: 505/515, 560/580, 660/680
  • A2: 365/430 (core), 505/515 (ring)
  • A3-5: 365/430, 505/515, 580/600, 660/680
  • B1-5: 505/515
What type of coverslips are used for the FocalCheck Fluorescence Microscope Test Slide #1 (Cat. No. F36909)?

The coverslips are made of borosilicate glass (#1.5; ~0.17 mm thickness).

Are the microspheres from FocalCheck Fluorescence Microscope Test Slide #1 (Cat. No. F36909) in one plane?

No. Most of the 15 µm beads (Position A1 on the slide) would be within the narrowest focal plane, but they are not guaranteed to all be within the same plane.
