"procurementMethodRationale": "The Light Microscopy Core (LMC) purchased a Yokagawa W1 spinning disk unit to upgrade a microscopy currently housed in the LMC. This equipment will enable the LMC to perform very high-speed imaging of live samples with greatly reduced phototoxic/photobleaching effects. This ability is transformative for the research groups using the facility and opens up the possibility of high resolution, high speed timelapse imaging which has been an unfulfilled requirement for a number of years.\r\n The configuration of the current microscope uses existing Nikon software. Utilising a different software would compromise required output of the existing microscope which is being upgraded to allow further functionality. Therefore, this upgrade can only be provided by Nikon.",
