Dear Snouty Group, #SnoutClub Despite multiple checks and reasonably precise alignments, I think my setup isn't performing well in terms of axial resolution and light sheet sectioning. In high NA illumination, it's usually about 1.3µm, in the red channel. We expect less than 1µm!

Any hidden alignment faults or common errors I should consider to rectify this? Any raw datasets from beads in gel and 3D PSFs you can share to show how a practically good PSF should look (at high NA illumination)? Your help would be greatly appreciated! 🙏 #snouty #KingSnout

1) Optimizing #OPM🔬 for effective NA=1.5 (or 1.35 silicone) Achievable with some tweaks!🧐 Instead of matching Mrr to primary objective RI (n), consider raising Mrr to ~1.2 x n. Then increase #Snouty's tilt angle a little bit (maintain light-sheet angle at 30° in the sample).👇

2) A slightly increased Mrr can accommodate 100% of collected light from O1 into O2 and then into O3 without any clipping. Higher tilt angle addresses lateral and longitudinal magnification mismatches, ensuring image plane preservation on O3.🤔🔬? #SnoutClub Five proposed setups:

We discovered a surprisingly easy way to control the brightness of fluorescent proteins via magnetic fields: andrewgyork.github.io/gfp_ma… This raises fascinating scientific questions about the mechanism, and tantalizing technological opportunities for bioengineering.
