1st Anniversary Sale

GATTAquant – your leading company for super-resolution, fluorescence and non-optical microscopy nanorulers – is celebrating its first anniversary and offers special discounts on super-resolution and AFM samples.

For this unique occasion we are happy to announce a 20% discount on all fluorescence nanorulers (SIM, STED, localization based, confocal, and brightness). Our innovative nanorulers allow a fast, easy and precise determination of resolution values of any common high-resolution microscopy system. Both the utilization as standard measurement sample as well as the application as test and demo tool gives you the possibility to demonstrate your systems performance.

For more information please click on the link provided below:

http://www.gattaquant.com/Nanoruler

Further we want to take you by surprise with our additional 20% discount on our GATTA-AFM samples – the perfect structure for imaging and characterizing biological material in solution.

The GATTA-AFM sample is a rectangular DNA nanostructure with dimensions of 90 nm x 70 nm x 2 nm. The small height reduces scan defects at the edges but still allows a precise monitoring in z with a height of 2 nm. Further it contains a ladder like substructural unit which reveals a distinct line spacing of 6 nm in xy (http://www.gattaquant.com/references/oxford-instruments-asylum-research.html). Structures are easily immobilized on mica using magnesium containing buffers and serve as test and demo sample for imaging biological material and to verify the resolution of your system under liquid conditions.

See more under:

http://www.gattaquant.com/products/gatta-afm.html The anniversary sale will run until November 30th, 2015. Please find our regular pricelist on http://www.gattaquant.com/files/pricelist.pdf.

If you have any questions please do not hesitate to contact us, we are happy to help you in any way we can.

GATTAquant is looking forward to hearing from you!

Best regards

Your GATTAquant team

Quantifying the Resolution of a Leica SR GSD 3D Localization Microscopy System with 2D and 3D Nanorulers

DNA origami based nanorulers produced by GATTAquant are common standards to test the achievable spatial resolution of super-resolution microscopes. Recently the nanorulers were used to test the performance of the Leica SR GSD 3D microscope.

+++Summer Sale // 15% off on Gold Nanohelices for TEM+++

GATTAquant is happy to announce a special summer sale for our electron microscopy community. We offer a 15% discount on our Gold Nanohelices – the perfect chirality tomography marker for cutting-edge EM imaging.

The Gold Nanohelices (L,R) are chiral nanoscale markers especially suited for 3D Tomography / Electron Microscopy (EM) / CryoEM. Our chiral markers show pure chirality (L or R), which can easily be detected with EM due to the high contrast and the precise arrangement of the gold nanoparticles. Just click on the link provided below for more information: http://www.gattaquant.com/products/gold-nanohelices.html

The summer sale will run until July 10th 2015. Please find our regular pricelist on http://www.gattaquant.com/files/pricelist.pdf

If you have any questions please do not hesitate to contact us, we are happy to help you in any way we can.

We are looking forward to hearing from you!

+++EASTER SALE+++

After the very interesting discussions on the “Focus on Microscopy” Conference in Goettingen, Germany last week and a hopefully recreative Easter holiday we offer you as a belated Easter present a 30% discount on almost every GATTAquant product (except TEM Nanohelices). As one of the hot topics in optical applications, super-resolution microscopy explores new scientific areas but also requires reference samples to test the microscope, to practice imaging as well as to demonstrate the capability of your imaging method. These reference samples are now available!

Just browse through our product portfolio by clicking on the link provided below and find the appropriate ruler for your application or imaging technique:

http://www.gattaquant.com/Nanoruler

And the 30% discount is still not all. Beside that we add our newly developed software solution GATTAnalysis to every GATTAquant nanoruler. And that free of charge! GATTAnalysis supports you in the quantitative analysis of your resolved nanorulers with one-click distance measurements and FWHM output. Check

http://www.gattaquant.com/products/gattanalysis-software.html

Further we provide the community now with a new multicolor probe for confocal microscopy. Three colors, three distances – specifically adjusted to each wavelength – all on one slide.

This Easter sale will run until April 30th 2015. Please find our regular pricelist on

http://www.gattaquant.com/files/pricelist.pdf

If you have any questions please do not hesitate to contact us, we are happy to help in any way that we can.

We are looking forward to hearing from you!

+++New GATTA-Confocal Multicolor Nanoruler+++

Three colors, three distances – specifically adjusted to each wavelength – all on one slide.

Nanorulers from the GATTA-Confocal series are designed for users of classical (i.e. diffraction limited) microscopy systems. The rulers carry two fluorescent marks out of high quantum yield dye molecules. Thereby the mark-to-mark distance has a value of 350 nm. GATTA-Confocal rulers are available in the colors red (ATTO 647N), yellow (Alexa568), green (ATTO 532) or blue (Alexa488). On request we can also design special solutions for your specific requirements. All probes will be delivered on a sealed glass slide which you can comfortably put directly on your microscope.

For more information please visit http://www.gattaquant.com/pro…/gatta-confocal-nanoruler.html

+++GATTAnalysis Software Tool+++

The software tool GATTAnalysis by GATTAquant provides a fast and easy way to evaluate super-resolution data gained from measurements with DNA-origami based nanorulers. Just by a few clicks origami structures can be detected in the super-resolved image and analyzed concerning to mark-to-mark-distance. The resulted distance values are then presented in a histogram including basic statistical analyzing options or can be exported to a text file.
