QImaging announces the release of the Rolera EM-C2 EMCCD microscopy camera. Engineered for high-sensitivity and high-speed performance in low-light imaging applications, the Rolera EM-C2 camera aids researchers in applications such as spinning-disc confocal imaging, Total Internal Reflection Fluorescence (TIRF) microscopy, ratiometric ion imaging and Fluorescence Recovery After Photobleaching (FRAP).
Fast frame rates essential to cutting-edge live cell imaging studies are enabled by the camera's 40 MHz pixel clock rate. Up to 34.2 full-resolution (one megapixel) frames per second can be read out and transferred over an optimized 800 Mb/s implementation of the IEEE 1394b FireWire protocol. The Rolera EM-C2 delivers very low noise and high-sensitivity (~65% peak quantum efficiency) across a broad spectrum common to fluorescence experiments. Peltier cooling to -50º C minimizes dark current for longer exposures. Variable exposure times range from 200 microseconds to 17.9 minutes.
