The EM-CCD camera, equipped with an electron multiplying CCD, amplifies optical signals without increasing noise during data transfers, and enables high-speed photography under ultra-dim light that would otherwise require a long exposure time.

The EM-CCD Cameras are not for clinical diagnostic use.

Ideal for the Following Applications
The EM-CCD camera performs excellently, especially in the following applications:

Real-time imaging under dim fluorescent light
Fluorescent live cell imaging with reduced intensity excitation light
Observation of protein interaction within a cell
Measurement of ion concentration within a cell
Real-time confocal imaging
Single molecule imaging using a total internal reflection fluorescent (TIRF) microscope
Observation of in vivo microcirculatory blood cells using a fluorescent biomicroscope
Bioluminescence imaging of gene expression
The following manufacturers are recommended for EM-CCD cameras that can be operated with Olympus cellSens software:

Hamamatsu Photonics
Andor
Photometrics
QImaging
