Summary: | One of the patterns present on a PSFcheck calibration slide consists of a 3D array of small diffraction limited shell features separated 10 µm from each other. The fluorescent thickness of a shell is small compared to the PSF so that the average FWHM across several features was calculated to be of 208 nm in a SIM microscope. We imaged this shell pattern using widefield fluorescence excitation on a NanoImager-S (Oxford Nanoimaging Ltd), equipped with a 100X, 1.4 NA, oil-immersion objective (Olympus). The PSFcheck sample was excited with a 561 nm laser and the emitted fluorescence acquired in the Emission Filter 2: Band 1 575-616.5 and recorded on an sCMOS Hamamatsu Orca Flash 4.0 V3. Acquisition time = 33 ms, effective pixel size at object plane = 117 nm. Imaging of the PSFcheck pattern was done once. |
