CAIRN
CAIRN Research are an independent, employee owned microscopy research-orientated company specialising in solutions for the life sciences for nearly 40 years. From their origins as a provider of turnkey optical systems for fast intracellular ion measurements, we have maintained close links with our academic customer base. This has enabled them to develop a broad range of products and solutions to meet their expanding needs. CAIRNS's strength lies in thier understanding of both the requirements of the microscopy research community and of the advances in technology from which they can benefit.
CAIRN Research are instrument designers, manufacturers and vendors of both Illumination and Detection products. Their illumination products encompass a wide range of light sources, adapters and specialist laser systems; typically used in conjunction with a third-party, or Cairn-built, microscope or macrosope. On the detection side, the primary focus is on multi-channel imaging using one or more third-party cameras. These products are largely based around optical techniques, most importantly, fluorescence, optogenetics, photolysis and transmitted light imaging.
Although fully independent they are closely allied with Chroma Technology where a large number of our illumination and detection products make use of their high performance interference filters.
