iLas Pulse
The iLas Pulse system is a unique tool for Subcellular Nano-surgery and Nano-irradiation combined with FRAP/Photoactivation. Coupled to a microscope, it addresses a wide variety of bio-physical applications.
Precise focusing of pulsed laser light in real time enables non-invasive manipulation of the structural machinery of living cells with several-hundred nanometer resolution.Banner Credits: RPEI Cells transfected with lifeact-GFP.

Central part of the images was enhanced for better visualization.
