Summary

General Guidelines for Superresolution Structured Illumination Microscopy (SR-SIM)

Sample support for SR-SIM

Recommends high-precision coverslips (no. 1.5 thickness) for mounting samples.

Fluorescent Labels for SR-SIM

Labeling for SR-SIM

Discusses suitable organic dyes and fluorescent proteins for SR-SIM, emphasizing specific labeling.

Embedding for Superresolution Microscopy

Embedding Media

Lists embedding media with specific refractive indices (RI) for sample preparation.

General Guidelines for Photoactivated Localization Microscopy (PALM)

Sample support for PALM

Recommends Nunc Lab-Tek chambers or glass bottom dishes for PALM/dSTORM sample preparation.

Fluorescent Proteins for PALM

Fluorescent Proteins for PALM

Explains the advantage of photoswitchable fluorescent proteins (PS-FPs) for PALM and lists examples.

Recommended FP-Pairs for dual-color PALM

Lists recommended fluorescent protein pairs for dual-color PALM imaging experiments.

Recommended Dyes for dSTORM

Dyes for dSTORM

Discusses suitable organic dyes for dSTORM, focusing on photon yield, duty cycle, and survival fraction.

Antibodies for dSTORM

Suggests direct antibody labeling or using nanobodies for dSTORM due to antibody size.

Post-fixation and Imaging Buffer for dSTORM

Post-fixation for Antibody Labeling

Describes post-fixation as a step to improve label stability and prevent detachment.

Imaging Buffer Preparation for dSTORM

Provides a recipe and notes for preparing the imaging buffer for dSTORM experiments.

Fiducial Markers for Localization Microscopy

Purpose of Fiducial Markers

Explains the purpose of fiducial markers for drift correction, channel alignment, and autofocus.

Fiducial Marker and Coverslip Order Information

Lists suppliers and catalog numbers for fiducial markers and coverslips.
