The pioneering Leica TCS SP5 X with supercontinuum laser provides freedom and flexibility which were unattainable until now in fluorescence microscopy and allows true optimisation of results
The supercontinuum laser is, says Leica, a groundbreaking innovation which now allows the researcher to choose any excitation line within the continuous range of 470 to 670nm.
The Leica TCS SP5 X precisely adapts to any existing or future fluorescent dye.
Optimal adjustment of the excitation line to the sample - in 1nm increments - reduces cross-excitation and minimises sample damage.
The Leica TCS SP5 X allows multi-colour excitation with up to eight excitation lines simultaneously.
All broadband capabilities of the Leica TCS SP5 AOBS are included in this pacesetting confocal system.
The patented spectral detection technology of Leica Microsystems provides complete freedom in choosing any detection area in up to five truly spectral confocal PMT channels.
The acousto-optical beamsplitter (AOBS), a groundbreaking invention from Leica Microsystems, ensures highest sensitivity and provides a far better transmission than any dichroic mirror.
The AOBS and the supercontinuum laser are a perfect match and open new doors in confocal microscopy applications.
