InverTau

Fluorescence Lifetime Imaging Platform

The InverTau™ platform is a laser scanning confocal unit for Fluorescence Lifetime Imaging (FLIM). InverTau is fully software controlled and designed to fit on the side port of an inverted fluorescence microscope. Build your own microscope system around the InverTau platform, or buy a complete system from HORIBA. Versatile solutions are always available with local support.
