Imaging and X-Irradiation
A new RTSF Core Facility located in the Biomedical and Physical Sciences Building is now open to MSU Researchers. The X-RAD 320 is located in 1114 BPS and the IVIS Spectrum is located in 1117 BPS.
INSTRUMENTS
X-RAD 320
The X-RAD 320 is a self-contained x-ray system for delivering radiation dosages safely and effectively to specimens e.g. cell cultures, small animals. The X-RAD 320 is located in room 1114 Biomedical Physical Sciences (BPS) Building. Entry is by authorized card access only. All users are required to have completed the ORCBS online class entitled Analytical X-ray Training and submitted a System Training request Form and System Access Form to xrad320@cns.msu.edu prior to being trained to use the machine. You must have a DPPS assigned 4 digit PIN to access the room. An IACUC approved AUF is required for all small animal irradiation studies.Forms

IVIS Spectrum
The IVIS Spectrum is a light tight imaging chamber with integrated gas anesthesia and heated stage for quantitative bioluminescent and fluorescent imaging in vivo and in vitro. Take advantage of bioluminescent and fluorescent reporters across the blue to near infrared wavelength region using the IVIS Spectrums narrow band excitation and emission filters and spectral un-mixing algorithms.
