🔧 Product Description

Nikon Type F Immersion Oil (MXA22168) is a specialty low-autofluorescence immersion oil engineered for the most demanding fluorescence microscopy applications. Its formulation minimizes background autofluorescence to deliver the highest possible signal-to-noise ratio — critical for detecting weak fluorescent signals, single-molecule imaging, and quantitative fluorescence workflows. Type F is also fully compatible with Nikon's Perfect Focus System (PFS), enabling stable, drift-free focus maintenance during long time-lapse experiments — a key advantage for live cell imaging and automated screening workflows. Nikon manufactures two immersion oil types — Type N (general purpose) and Type F (low fluorescence) — and recommends using only their tested formulations with their objectives to ensure matched refractive index and consistent performance. The 30ml glass bottle includes a glass dispensing rod for precise, controlled application. For use with Nikon oil immersion objectives.

🔎 Typical Applications

• High-sensitivity fluorescence microscopy (TIRF, STORM, PALM, single-molecule)
• Long-duration live cell time-lapse imaging with Nikon PFS
• Quantitative fluorescence and FRET experiments
• Automated screening and high-content imaging workflows
• Confocal and widefield fluorescence on Nikon Ti/Ni series microscopes
