Multiphoton visualization of cups, microplates and organoids from the bottom – while preserving the aperture of the upright system
Inverter module for Ultima 2Pplus and Investigator Plus, usually installed in one day
Inverted configuration of Ultima multiphoton platform for cups, microplates, slides and organoids.
The inverter module translates the optical geometry of Ultima 2Pplus or Investigator Plus into an inverted format and retains the ability to work in the original upright configuration. A light-tight lock camera improves safety when working with upward-facing optics.
The system uses relay optics and mirror beam routing, while maintaining numerical aperture and light transmission. Supports slides, dishes, multi-well microplates, organoids and attached cells; the exact parameters depend on the base platform.

Product details
Ultima's core platform
modular multiphoton
Inverted geometry
- Relay optics and mirror routing redirect excitation and detection pathways downwards
- High collection angle of 14° and field of view of the source system are maintained
- No special lenses are needed – the existing Ultima configurations are used
Safety
- Lightproof camera with locking excludes contact with the upward beam
- The laser works only with a closed case - suitable for common centers of collective use.
Simple modernization
- Upgrade the existing system on site, usually in one day
- Compatible with standard XY-table Bruker and incubation cameras from different manufacturers
