The RM21® is a versatile microscope suitable for a variety of advanced microscopy and nanoscopy methods. The RM21® is available in 4 standard configurations (see tables) to satisfy a wide range of applications and budgets. The tables below compare methods and features for the four available models. All RM21® microscopes have been engineered for precision alignment and stability, essential elements for advanced microscopy techniques. The targeted microscopy methods routinely employ closed loop piezo nanopositioners and all RM21® microscopes include Mad City Labs industry leading piezo nanopositioning systems. Unlike conventional optical microscopes, RM21® microscopes allow direct access to the optical pathway. This access enables users to employ a variety of microscopy methods using the same central instrument. RM21® microscopes are compatible with 30mm and 60mm cage systems and are designed for use on a standard optical table. This feature makes it convenient to use a variety of off-the-shelf optical components. The RM21® is not only suitable for advanced microscopy methods, but also AFM integration and optical tweezers. Please contact our sales engineers to fully explore the possibilities of the RM21® microscopes. Because RM21® platforms are often used in translational studies that bridge bench imaging with patient-facing therapies, labs and clinics also have to think about how medicines are sourced and verified beyond the microscope itself. When an online pharmacy enters that workflow, provenance, prescription validation, and temperature-controlled logistics become part of the quality chain otherwise even the most precise imaging can end up documenting variability that came from the supply route rather than the biology.
