Movie Size: 412 kb
Imaged with simultaneous fluorescence and reflection imaging on a Bio-Rad MRC-1024 confocal microscope. The reflected surface image is cut away to reveal vacuoule membranes labeled with FM-143. Depth is approximately 23 µm, 77 slices. Collected by Dr. Birgit Neubohn, 198, images processed with Voxblast on a Mac 7300/200

   Confocal of Spirogyra (1)      
  Movie size:
20X/.75 Nikon objective, 4X zoom. 0.3 um/pixel, 4 usec dwell time (Normal Scan).
60 timepoints collected 10 sec apart.
Fluor 488 nm excitation, left panel is Transmitted Light Detector, right panel is chlorophyll autofluorescence 660-700 nm. Notice pronounced focus drift in the right panel.
 
     
                   
   Confocal of Spirogyra (2)      
 

Movie size:
Same sampling parameters as 1 but showing the junction of two cells.
Notice fluorescence fading after the first few scans.

 
     
                   
   Confocal of Spirogyra (3)      

Movie size:
Same as 2, but better displays organellar motions.

 
 Confocal of Spirogyra (4)
Same field as "2" above, 80 degree rotation, 320-40 deg. of chlorophyll fluorescence. 18 µm thickness/.3 µm interval.
