htSMLM

A user interface for localization microscopes

htSMLM (high-throughput single-molecule localization microscopy) is an EMU user interface for Micro-Manager. EMU allows loading easily reconfigurable user interfaces in Micro-Manager.

In particular, htSMLM features optional and reconfigurable controls for:

  • Four lasers (on/off and laser percentage)
  • One to four filterwheels (four to six positions each)
  • Up to six on/off controls (servos, flip mirros)
  • Focus monitoring, moving and locking (if a similar system to pgfocus is present)
  • A quadrant photodiode monitoring (see pgfocus)
  • Laser triggering interface for MicroFPGA
  • Two iBeamSmart laser panels (focus-lock and booster tabs)

And in addition:

  • A script panel to automatically adjust the UV power or pulse length to activate single-molecules.

  • An acquisition panel for designing a set of experiments (localization, snapshot, z-stack...etc..) to be performed automatically, enabling unsupervised localization microscopy.

Guide

To install and use htSMLM, please consult the user guide.
