  • fluorescence and bright field imaging (all systems)
    • purpose: test general performance of the system - basic functions work fine? + Koehler illumination, light paths ok?
    • requirements: Zeiss/Leica Convallaria demo sample
    • work flow: acquire two images in basic resolution (512x512), blue ex / green em plus transmitted light image, using 10x objective
  • field of illumination
    • purpose: check for even illumination
    • requirements: mirror
    • work flow: 80/20 mirror, 488 nm laser, pinhole 1 AU. focus on reflective side of mirror. try to obtain "japanese flag".
  • psf
    • purpose:
    • requirements:
    • work flow:
  • overlay UV/V and VIS (confocal systems with separate UV/V laser coupling)
    • purpose: check the coupling precision of the UV/V laser
    • requirements: 0.2/0.5µm fluorescent beads sample
    • work flow: open pinhole(s), use high resolution apochromatic lens (NA 1.2 or above), acquire two images (UV/V plus VIS channel) with good sampling (pixel size ~100nm)

PSF Macro

install LUT

  • Mac: go to applications folder > fiji: ctrl+click on the Fiji(.app) icon > Show package content
  • create "luts" folder if it's not there yet
  • drag and drop the *.lut into it
  • (re)start fiji

install macro

  • Fiji > Plugins > Macros > Install...
  • select macro txt file
  • macro gets installed to that menu for the current session

load bead stack

  • Fiji > File > Open
  • select bead stack file
  • if necessary, split channels (Fiji > Image > Color > Split Channels)
  • if necessary, crop image to a single bead
