The SliceScope Upright Microscope is a popular fully-motorised, fixed stage, focusing nosepiece, upright microscope widely
used by world-leading researchers.
The SliceScope is a very stable, compact upright microscope designed to meet the demands of electrophysiology and related
techniques – including two photon imaging. The versatile and modular design enables easy integration of a wide range of objectives
(including those from Olympus and Nikon), light sources, optics and other accessories to best suit your application.
The
small footprint and low noise electronics, as well as the remote control, have made the SliceScope an integral part of
electrophysiology and rigs around the world particularly when incorporated as part of a SliceScope Pro system.
Applications
Scientifica’s SliceScope Pro systems are a range of integrated patch clamping solutions suitable for many tissue slice, whole cell
and in vivo applications.
These systems comprise of Scientifica’s SliceScope microscope, manipulators, stages and mounting platforms which are all controlled
by our simple user-consoles. These versatile systems are available as four main packages, but depending on your experimental needs
and personal preferences the SliceScope Pro systems can be tailored to suit you.

SliceScope Pro Buyer’s Guide
A full electrophysiology system for dual or single patch clamp recording. This package consists of the SliceScope microscope, motorised XY translation stage, two PatchStar manipulators and adjustable Post & Platform mounting systems for the manipulators and sample. Typically used for slice electrophysiology and fluorescent imaging, it is also available in in vivo configurations.
An integrated electrophysiology rig ideal for dual or single patch clamp recording with a movable microscope. This system consists of the SliceScope microscope, motorised XY translation stage, fixed-stage platform and two PatchStar micromanipulators. The large plate allows the easy addition of extra manipulators or recording apparatus.
A static microscope system designed for in vitro electrophysiology and capable of accommodating advanced imaging, such as two-photon and confocal. The system consists of a SliceScope, motorised movable top plate and two PatchStar micromanipulators. Move the platform beneath the fixed microscope whilst maintaining patches, for easy access to the whole sample.
A full electrophysiology system with a static microscope that enables in vitro and in vivo studies, including advanced imaging such as two-photon and confocal. The system consists of a SliceScope, motorised movable base plate and two PatchStar micromanipulators.
