Leica has introduced the LMD7000, a laser microdissection system with a power-adjustable, high-precision laser.
The laser's high pulse repetition rates are ideal for the fast excision of single cells, cell clusters, or thin and soft samples.
Additionally, high laser power allows the dissection of thick or hard specimens.
The LMD6500 and LMD7000 laser microdissection systems use gravity to gently collect the samples.
The dissected material, whatever its size or shape, is collected in a contact-free, contamination-free manner.
No additional procedures are necessary for collection.
The laser beam movement of the Leica LMD7000 and LMD6500 is controlled by high- precision optics, whereas the microscope stage and the sample are fixed.
This allows high cutting accuracy at high magnifications, as well as high cutting speed at low magnifications.
Leica's intuitive user interface eases everyday research.
Consumables include a non-fluorescent, glass-like membrane for all contrast methods.
The Leica LMD7000 and Leica LMD6500 laser microdissection systems are suitable for dissecting live cells, single cells, and specific cell clusters for biomarker research, molecular pathology, and many more applications.
