About Service

The WISH – ALM and Molecular Imaging Node in Wageningen joins the outstanding scientific and technical excellence of four participating expertise groups specialized in light microscopy, microspectroscopy, magnetic resonance and electron microscopy.

This Node applies these advanced imaging technologies to plant research within a multidisciplinary research environment of cell & developmental biologists, (bio-) physicists and biochemists.

Advanced instrumentation has been developed for the particular purpose of studying photosynthesis in vivo with the use of ultrafast fluorescence at the level of individual cells and chloroplasts. Additionally, the Node has expertise in the imaging of bacteria and archaea from soil and marine environments 


Specific informations

The WISH – ALM and Molecular Imaging Node in Wageningen offers a dozen set-ups for optical microscopy and spectroscopy. 

Optical spectroscopy

  • 1. Streak camera: The Hamamatsu Streak camera can measure the changes in fluorescence spectra at a picosecond timescale. The set-up has a white light laser source for flexible excitation, and can measure samples in a cuvette and in a rotating cell.
  • 2. Circular dichroism: The Jasco J815 is a spectropolarimeter that can be used to measure circular dichroism. It can be used to study chiral molecules and protein structure.
  • 3. Fluorescence spectroscopy: Multiple fluorescence spectrometers are available, including a Edinburgh Instruments FS5 (also lifetimes / TCSPC), Horiba Fluorolog 3-22, and a Cary Fluor.
