The light microscopy network at Bath provides its users with advanced level confocal and fluorescent microscopes as well as training and advice.
Flow cytometry is a reliable and fast technique to extract variable information from thousands of cells in a matter of minutes.
An explanation of flow cytometry or FACS (fluorescence-activated cell sorting) and how it's used in cell sorting, immunophenotyping, and other applications.
Electron microscopy encompasses a number of imaging techniques which use a focused beam of electrons to produce an image, rather than using visible light.

Fourier Transform Infrared spectroscopy allows vibrational and rotational modes of chemical bonds to be analysed. This is particularly useful for identifying organic compounds.
Find out about the Spectroscopy and Surface Characterisation service.
We are equipped with state-of-the-art metrology equipment allowing repeatable precision measurements of materials for industry, manufacturing, and research.
Our equipment ensures stable, comparable and accurate measurements for research.
The Imaging Facility offers users the ability to image samples in a wide variety of ways and on different scales, from sub-nanometre to macro imaging. Our services span bioimaging, flow cytometry, electron microscopy and molecular spectroscopy.
The Imaging Facility is part of the Research Infrastructure and Facilities department.
