The ECLIPSE Ci-L plus contributes to more comfortable clinical examinations.
„Mir wurde sofort klar, dass die hohe optische Leistung im Einklang mit dem durchdachten Design unsere tägliche Arbeit unterstützt.“
Klinische Untersuchungen spielen eine wichtige Rolle in der medizinischen Versorgung. Ein klarer Fokus bei der Entwicklung des neuen Labormikroskops ECLIPSE Ci-L plus von Nikon lag auf dem Konzept, sowohl die physische als auch mentale Belastung von Klinikern und Labortechnikern, die täglich viel am Mikroskop arbeiten, zu reduzieren. In diesem Interview sprachen wir mit Dr. Akira Yoshikawa von der Abteilung für anatomische Pathologie des Kameda Medical Center – einem führenden Lehrkrankenhaus im südlichen Teil der Präfektur Chiba, Japan – über seine Gedanken nach dem Arbeiten mit diesem Mikroskop und den neuen Objektiven „CFI Plan Apochromat Lambda D“ im praktischen Alltagsgebrauch.

Reproduktionsklinik Tokio
„Das beste Sperma unter Millionen finden. Für Embryologen ist dies eine einzigartige Arbeit der Selektion und wir fühlen eine große Verantwortung dabei.“
Die Reproduktionsklinik Tokio, eine Kinderwunschklinik im dritten Stockwerk des Shiodome City Center, einem hochmodernen Bürogebäude im Shiodome-Viertel im Zentrum von Tokio, hat viele Patienten, die auch an Wochentagend abends auf eine Behandlung warten. Wir sprachen mit Shimpei Mizuta und Tomohiro Maekawa, die das Inverse Mikroskop Ti2 für die Spermiensortierung und die intrazytoplasmatische Spermieninjektion (ICSI) verwenden, über ihre Gedanken zu ihrer Arbeit und ihre Eindrücke vom Ti2.

So-called iPS cells are attracting considerable interest as pluripotent stem cells that may open up a whole new world of medicine. The Center for iPS Cell Research and Application (CiRA) at Kyoto University is pursuing a wide range of research activities that aim to realize regenerative medicine utilizing iPS cells. The Nikon BioStation CT cell culture observation system is being used in this iPS cell research and is contributing to its efficiency.
We were pleased to have had an opportunity to speak with Masato Nakagawa, who is engaged in iPS cell research at CiRA.
