This requirement is to purchase an inverted fluorescent microscope for a cellular molecular laboratory to allow for the visualization and tracking of biological material that includes RNA, proteins, and cells (including sperm cells). The inverted microscope must be equipped for phase contrast, polarized light, and fluorescence and include a camera, dual channel digital microinjection system, and a pipette puller. It must be able to measure, track in real-time, track with movie, and image live sperm motility. Most importantly, the microscope should be compatible with the existing Nikon microscopes (camera system DS-Fi2 and SMZ-18 microscope) in the Chemistry and Chemical Engineering Department at Royal Military College of Canada so that objectives, filters, and cameras can be shared across platforms to allow for a broader range of use for many research groups at RMC. Since there will be many users, the microscope should have functionality to gather data from automated internal sensors and guide the user through the appropriate methodology.
