rapidFLIMHiRes
Visualize dynamic processes with ultra fast FLIM imaging and outstanding 5 ps time resolution
Interested in ultra fast FLIM imaging with 5 ps time resolution? Try PicoQuant’s rapidFLIMHiRes approach, which redefines Fluorescence Lifetime Imaging (FLIM) by combining fast data acquisition with a 5 ps time resolution for reliable, quantitative analysis. Increased data acquisition speed without sacrifices in lifetime resolution allows studying fast processes such as protein interactions, fast changes in environmental parameters, metabolic imaging, or high throughput FLIM screening.

White Paper
Free white paper: “Visualize dynamic processes with rapidFLIMHiRes, the ultra fast FLIM imaging method with outstanding time resolution”. The white paper provides an outline of the general principles underlying rapidFLIMHiRes as well as a series of application examples highlighting the usefulness of this method. A quick run-down of the hardware requirements for implementing rapidFLIMHiRes rounds this application note out.
Webinar
Watch the recorded webinar about rapidFLIMHiRes that was held on October 1, 2020 to learn more about this exciting imaging method. PicoQuant's application specialist Maria Loidolt-Krüger showcases the latest hardware and software developments that allow for rapidFLIM data acquisition and quantitative data analysis. Learn how this method can help you in visualizing dynamic processes in cells or tissues.
Application Examples
Intracellular Ca2+ signals induced by mechanical stimulation of HEK-cells loaded with Oregon-Green-Bapta-1. In this video, the top two cells were mechanically stimulated which leads to a change in fluorescence lifetime.

Monitoring changes in membrane tension with rapidFLIMHiRes in MDCK cells undergoing osmotic shock. The cell membranes contain a fluorescent tension reporting probe (Flipper-TR®). Upon undergoing osmotic shock, a rapid reduction in fluorescence lifetime of Flipper-TR® can be observed.

MicroTime 200 with FLIMBee galvo scanner
rapidFLIMHiRes experiments are also possible with a MicroTime 200 equiped with a FLIMBee galvo scanner, a MultiHarp 150 TCSPC unit along with PMA Hybrid detectors possessing a very low effective dead time. The MicroTime 200 is a time-resolved confocal fluorescence microscope with unique single molecule sensitivity, enabling the realisation of several modalities like FLIM, FCS, STED, anisotropy imaging, antibunching measurements in the same microscopic platform.
