Nanozoomer Basic Operation

Loading Your Slides

 

Before beginning, have one of the core staff (https://www.igb.illinois.edu/corefacilities/contact) look at the slides to confirm that there are no protruding coverslip edges.  The nanozoomer is very particular about slide size, any non-standard slides or protruding coverslips will cause it to fail.  Also, make sure the slides have dried for 24 hours, 

Make sure the nanozoomer is on.

Load the slides into the cassettes with the coverslip facing up.
