Microsopes and microdissection supplies for yeast replicative lifespans

By cccarcord on 29 July 2010

I'm looking for information on what microscopes people use for yeast replicative aging experiments and where you can get the micromanipulator and microdissection kits.  Thanks!

We have typically gotten our microdissection kits from Cora Styles.  We use a Zeiss Axioscope with tetrad dissection apparatus.  I know some people like the Singer tetrad dissection scope, but we prefer the fine manual control of the Axioscope for replicative aging experiments.
