The WAINVIEW microscope is equipped with a variable power green laser source that can be adapted to the application. A pulsing system required for quantum detection allows the generation of very fast and precise sequences of light pulses. The incident beam is then directed towards the sample using a galvanometric mirror to scan the samples. The fluorescence signal from the diamonds is then detected by a photon counter, which allows us to identify a low level of fluorescence in the pulse sequence. Fast, thanks to optimised scanning speed and signal processing Reliable, as NV fluorescent sensors are extremely photostable (and do not exhibit photobleaching) by choosing the specific diamond model for the desired application. it can detect very small amounts and variations of magnetic field Easy to use, thanks to the software developed specifically for this application As only one drop of sample is needed on the usual microscope supports (slides, multi-well plates, Petri dishes, …) Laser illumination 520nm Variable light power from 1µW to 1mW Warm-up time 1h for high accuracy and kinetic measurements Laser pulse and detection frequency up to 2MHz Spatial resolution 500nm, diffraction limit Scan 2D galvanometric mirror Pinhole 100µm Detection filter > 650nm Photon detection efficacy 65% at 650nm Detector noise 1500 photons/second Measurement time 1 to 10 min, depending on the desired sensitivity Magnetic species detection limit 1nM to 1µM Size 70x70x70cm Power supply 230V / 50Hz Optimum temperature 22°C without interruption Storage -20°C to 55°C, humidity <65%. Choice of camera and wide field illumination to view samples 2 x to 100 x objectives, air or immersion Isothermal chamber Motorised platform High content screening platform Anti-vibration table Detection of fluorescent nano-diamond labels for biomedical research and diagnostics, as well as for anti-counterfeiting. The detection of magnetic species, such as : The detection of radical species in : Evaluation of the efficacy of antioxidant molecules that neutralise radical species in an intra- or extra-cellular environment for agri-food or pharmaceutical applications. Detection of small temperature variations in a cellular environment for bio-medical research and diagnosis. WAINVIEW Microscope works with the usual microscopy media (slides, multi-well plates, Petri dishes, …).

Quantum sensors
A quantum sensor is a measuring instrument that exploits the laws of quantum mechanics and provides the measurement of physical quantities directly from values of fundamental constants of quantum physics. Such a sensor is therefore inherently accurate and stable, both being essential properties for many
Oxidative stress
Oxidative stress is involved in many phenomena ranging from a simple burn to serious diseases such as cancer, infectious diseases or neurodegenerative diseases. It is promoted by internal mechanisms such as infections or deficiencies, as well as by external factors such as smoking, sun exposure
Functionalisation of nano-diamonds
The functionalisation of nano-diamonds refers to the modification of their surface that includes binding with chemicals or biomolecules (acids, proteins, etc.) to improve their properties and to bind them to specifically targeted locations with high precision [1,2]. Why is the functionalisation of nano-diamonds necessary? The
Metrology
Metrology is the science of measurement. It defines the units of measurement, realises them, maintains their integrity, disseminates them and regularly leads to improvements in the international system of units. National metrology bodies serve as reference points for the calibration of measuring instruments used in
