Facilities

Fluorescent microscopeWe share the laboratories consisting of the up-to-date facilities for cytology, biochemistry and molecular biology, and specialised equipment for microscopy and image analysis, HPLC, radiochemistry and plant tissue culture, including greenhouses, chambers and walk-in rooms for the cultivation of plant material under controlled conditions.

Confocal microscope

Confocal microscopy imageUsing confocal microscope (Zeiss LSM 5 DUO), we are able to perform 3D studies of fluorescently labeled structures in living or fixed cells. For example, we can follow in vivo dynamics of protein involved in auxin transport machinery (see figure – green channel) and simultaneously visualize different cellular processes (here endocytosis – red channel) in a high resolution.
