The Fast Track to Superresolution
Nanoscopy for Research
The Leica TCS STED CW is the most uncomplex way to nanoscopy for research. The system resolves structures smaller than 80 nm - with purely optical methods. The depletion lasers and emission lasers in the visible spectral range enable researchers to use conventional dyes such as Alexa 488, FITC and Oregon Green and beyond that established fluorescence proteins such as YFP. Dynamics of sub-cellular processes can be imaged due to this flexibility and the system's ability of fast data acquisition. This means: live cell imaging below the diffraction limit.
The Advantages: Freedom to Choose - Popular Fluroescent Dyes and Proteins
STED microscopy in the visible range enables to use labels like Alexa 488 and Oregon - plus genetically encoded standard markers like YFP for imaging on the nanoscale.
Observing What is Inside: The superior optical sectioning of the true point scanning system TCS SP5 provides superresolution deep inside the sample. Acquire images inside a 12 µm thick drosophila larvae featuring a thick cuticula. Record complete 3D stacks.
Devoid of Mathematical Artefacts: Profit from superresolution pixel by pixel independent of recording speed or dye. This is a purely optical superresolution concept. The robustness against interframe-drifts protects your data and makes data handling easy and safe.
Quick and Affordable Upgrade: The modular concept allows installed TCS SP5 systems to be upgraded on-site and in a short time.
