We are requesting a 4-channel laser scanning confocal microscope. This equipment will be housed in the Department of Biology and will allow continued support of 14 research programs across 5 departments at the University of Victoria. Our current microscope is over 10 years old and due to heavy usage has lost one of its three lasers as well as its ability to perform optical sectioning, a fundamental feature of the confocal microscope. There is no longer any warranty coverage on the current system and replacement parts are no longer available for many components. This request is therefore urgent.

我们需要一台4通道激光扫描共聚焦显微镜。这些设备将被安置在生物系，并将继续支持维多利亚大学5个系的14个研究项目。我们目前的显微镜已经有10多年的历史了，由于过度使用，它已经失去了三个激光器中的一个，以及执行光学切片的能力，这是共焦显微镜的一个基本特征。当前系统不再有任何保修范围，许多组件也不再提供更换部件。因此，这一请求是紧急的。
