Cairn Research Ltd.

Cairn Research Ltd. is an independent scientific instruments manufacturer based in Faversham, Kent, in the UK. We mainly produce instrumentation for fast, sensitive fluorescence measurements, and related optical techniques such as flash photolysis and luminescence. Our customers are typically bioscience researchers in prestigious institutions, and their input has encouraged our expansion into experimentally related areas, such as electrophysiology, with our innovative Optopatch patch clamp amplifier.

In addition to manufacturing our own proprietary research equipment we are experienced in providing complete integrated systems based around our hardware and high quality components from other suppliers. We have good working relationships with the top manufacturers of research microscopes, and are happy to supply and install microscopes from Olympus, Nikon and Zeiss. In the fluorescence imaging field we work with companies including Andor Biosciences, Chroma Inc., Roper Scientific, Hamamatsu, IonOptix and RedShirt Imaging to provide comprehensive solutions. We guarantee that whether you choose to buy a single component or an entire system from Cairn, you will get the same high level of service and support.
