Andor Technology plc has launched the TuCam adapter for simultaneous
two-camera macro- and microscopic imaging. Suited to fast, concurrent detection
of two different fluorophores in experiments such as colocalization Förster
resonance energy transfer and ratiometric ion signaling, it is compatible with the
company’s low-light imaging cameras, including iXon3 and Luca electron-multiplying
CCDs, and with the Clara interline CCD and the Neo sCMOS model. Bypass mode and
first surface mirror enable switching between cameras. The adapter can be configured
for simultaneous imaging from two similar cameras, or as a switch between camera
models with different capabilities. The robust design ensures good optical and mechanical
stability, and ease of alignment via kinematic cassettes. The device is available
in C- and CSUX-mount versions and offers a variety of beamsplitting optics.
