… and later like this:

Well, when building it, it will initially look like this:

From this load of bricks you can build… what exactly?

A load of building bricks – any ideas what you could build with them?
Hint: It has something to do with imaging across scales…
Stay tuned!

Visit us at the BPS2026 in San Francisco, USA. Our brand-new STEDYCON 2 is waiting for you, live and in action! Bring your samples and see how this compact microscope performs as it combines confocal, STED, and lifetime imaging. Our colleagues will be happy to answer your questions. See you there!

During last week's workshop at UKE in Hamburg scientists experienced first-hand how our #MIRAVAPOLYSCOPE facilitates imaging across scales, from millimeter samples all the way to single-digit nanometer localization precision.
Many thanks to Virgilio Failla for having us!

🧪 New at abberior: Donkey Secondary Antibodies in STAR RED & STAR ORANGE!

Minimal cross-reactivity, ideal for multiplex & high-specificity IF imaging.

More flexibility. More precision.

The impact of #MINFLUX :
Publications using MINFLUX have reached an average #impactfactor of 17.5, reflecting the technique's contribution to high-level scientific discoveries.

Australia, here we come! We’ll join our distributor Spatial Imaging at LMA2026 in Sydney. Come by and see what superresolution microscopy has in store for you.

STAR BLUE da-ba-dee, da-ba-di 🎶

A new STAR has arrived. And it didn’t come alone. ✨

Discover STAR BLUE and STAR 550 now!

#bringingcolortoscience #abberiordyes #fluorescencefriday

News from @abberior.rocks ! 🌟 The #STARdye family grows with STAR BLUE (extends into the blue range for multicolor confocal) and STAR 550 (775 nm STED-compatible for high-res imaging).

Shown: IF staining of mammalian cells with STAR dyes + phalloidin.

#STEDYCON2

At #cellbio2025, our new #STEDYCON2 again did what it does best: impressing everyone with a rock-solid, high-quality performance in confocal, STED, and lifetime imaging 🤩

STEDYCON transforms your microscope into a full-fledged confocal and STED machine!
🔸independent of the manufacturer
🔸for inverted and upright microscopes
🔸for old and new frames

#STEDYCON2

We will exhibit at #cellbio2025 in Philadelphia, PA!
Get to know our brand-new STEDYCON 2 live and in action! Bring your own samples and see how this compact and flexible microscope performs as it combines confocal, STED, and lifetime imaging in one flexible system.

#STEDYCON2 is engineered for ultimate robustness:
🔸All lasers aligned by design, including STED laser 👉no need for beam calibration, ever
🔸Hardware-based STEADYFOCUS 👉focus position is permanently stable
🔸Enhanced optomechanics 👉extended remote serviceability

Happy Fluorescence Friday!

Effortless protein labeling with our labeling kits for #confocal, #STED & #MINFLUX. Works for proteins >4 kDa: IgG, Fab, nanobodies & more.

Workflow: Prep → React → Clean → Stain

Exceptional signal, stability & performance!

#proteinlabeling #fluorescencefriday

#FLIM is now available for STEDYCON! 🌈
As #TIMEBOW lifetime imaging, it’s fully integrated into the STEDYCON smart control software and powered by @picoquant.bsky.social’s MultiHarp 150 hardware.
STEDYCON is your fast track to lifetime imaging.
