titleStartup
  1. Remove the dust cover from the microscope
  2. Turn on the computer (#1)
  3. Turn on the microscope power bar(#2)

  4. Turn on the microscope touchscreen (switch is located at the back on the right of the touch screen) (#3)

  5. Use your UdeM credentials to log in to Windows

    Info

    The first time you use the instrument, you need to import the microscope settings into the software. To do this follow the instructions in the First use section below.


  6. Start the software CellSens Dimension



UI Expand
titleFirst use

When using the microscope for the first time, you need to import the microscope settings into the software. You will usually do this during the training session.
This procedure can also be performed if something is not working properly and if you want to reset the software to its original settings.

Remarque

This process will delete all experiment protocols and reset the software to the original settings for this specific microscope.

  1. If open, close the software CellSens Dimension and wait until it is completely closed (up to 30 seconds)
  2. On your Desktop open the folder Documentation
  3. Double-click Settings for BX-63
  4. A script will run and a black window will briefly appear
  5. You can now reopen the software CellSens Dimension


UI Expand
titleLoading sample and focusing

Cette procédure permet de mettre le microscope dans une configuration sécuritaire et d'effectuer une calibration de la mise au point. À la fin de cette procédure le microscope sera prêt pour l'acquisition.


UI Expand
titlePremière mise au point

On the microscope touch screen :

  1. Press sur Full Operation

  2. Press 4x to select the 4x objective

    Info

    The 4x objective is the safest because it has the greatest working distance (16 mm).The sample will appear perfectly sharp long before the lens approaches it.It is recommended to always first focus with the safest lens.The objectives are para-focal, focusing with the safest objective will then allow you to easily find your sample with another objective.


  3. Press Escape to raise the lenses to their highest position

  4. Place the test slide on the microscope stage with the coverslip toward the objective

    Remarque
    titleImportant

    Always use the test slide to perform the first focus.

     

  5. If necessary, move the stage so that the sample is centered on the objective

On the computer

  1. Open the CellSens Dimension software

  2. Wait for the software to open (yes it's long...)

  3. At the bottom right of the window, select BF or the desired fluorescence (DAPI, FITC, TRITC or mCherry) to activate the configuration

  4. Adjust the focus with the main dial while looking through the eyepieces until the image is perfectly sharp

    Remarque

    The focus is around Z = 19000 um. The Z position value is visible on the touch screen.


  5. At the bottom right of the window, select Off to turn off the illumination


UI Expand
titleSecondary focus


Avertissement
titleImportant

First focus with the safest lens before selecting another lens and continuing with secondary focus.


UI Expand
titleFocusing with air lenses

After performing the first focus, on the microscope touch screen:

  1. Press 10x, 20x or 40x to select the desired lens

    Info

    The 40x objective is the best Air objective because it has the greatest number of optical corrections (Plan Apochromat) and the largest numerical aperture (0.95).It offers a lateral resolution of 420nm at a wavelength of 550nm.


  2. At the bottom right of the window, select BF or the desired fluorescence (DAPI, FITC, TRITC or mCherry) to activate the configuration

  3. Adjust the focus with the precision dial while looking through the eyepieces until the image is perfectly sharp

  4. Select Off to turn off the illumination
  5. Your sample is ready for acquisition!


UI Expand
titleFocusing with oil lenses

After performing the first focus, on the microscope touch screen:

  1. Press 60x Oil (1.35), 100x Oil (1.4) to select the desired lens.The microscope will automatically raise the objectives so that the sample is accessible.

    Info

    The 100x objective is the best oil objective because it has the highest number of optical corrections (Plan Apochromat) and the largest numerical aperture (1.4).It offers a lateral resolution of 240nm at a wavelength of 550nm.


  2. Place a drop of oil on your sample

In the CellSens Dimension software

  1. Click OK
  2. At the bottom right of the window, select BF or the desired fluorescence (DAPI, FITC, TRITC or mCherry) to activate the configuration
  3. Adjust the focus with the precision dial while looking through the eyepieces until the image is perfectly sharp
  4. Select Off to turn off the illumination
  5. Your sample is ready for acquisition!

titleStorage management
  • Files can be saved temporarily (during acquisition) to local C: drive (desktop)
  • At the end of each session, copy your data to your external drive and delete it from local C: drive
  • You can store your files on the D: drive (Data Storage). If you do, please create one folder per laboratory using the principal investigator's last name. Inside, create a folder per user using the following nomenclature (First Name_Last Name).
Remarque
titleImportant

In any case, do not store your files on the C: drive.



UI Expand
titleShutdown
  1. Save your data
  2. Close the software CellSens Dimension
  3. Transfer your data to the D: drive (Data Storage) or to your external drive and delete it from the local C: drive
  4. Turn off the computer
  5. If oil objectives were used, clean it with lens cleaner and lens paper (not Kimwipes)
  6. Turn off the microscope power bar (#2)
  7. Replace the dust cover on the microscope
Remarque
titleImportant Reminders
  • Collect your samples, especially those in the microscope
  • Leave the microscope and workspace clean
