VERTICAL TURN, EXPANDED OPTIONS Our Leica TCS SP8 DLS combines a complete confocal microscope with gentle single plane illumination in one system. The innovative TwinFlect mirror has turned the Leica TCS SP8 confocal platform into an easy and versatile light sheet microscope. Benefit from THE VERTICAL TURN! More options for your research The innovative TwinFlect technology Living specimens – particularly developmental processes in embryos – are often Light sheet microscopy usually requires a very sensitive to light exposure. Illuminating your sample only in one single plane at dedicated...

High-end optics for demanding applications Superior objectives for a wide range of applications is one of Leica Microsystems’ hallmarks. The heart of our system turning the light sheet vertically is formed by the objectives and the TwinFlect mirror. With the choice of two different illumination objectives, the Leica HC PL Fluotar 2.5x/0.07 or the Leica HCX PL FLUOTAR 5x/0.15, you can shape the light sheet depending on the experiment's requirements. In order to reveal the finest details or have a larger field of view, you can pick the optimal detection objective, either the Leica HC FLUOTAR...

Low phototoxicity and specimen imaging in 3D: Development of Drosophila melanogaster over 6 hours. Probe: Light-sensitive RFP. 3D rendering. 150 µm z stack, 30 sec/stack. Light sheet microscopy is a gentle way of imaging sensitive samples or fast biological processes by illuminating the specimen in only a single plane. Since there is no out-of-focus excitation, phototoxic effects can be reduced to the focal plane. It also means that you automatically have optical sectioning and you can image specimens in 3D by moving the sample through the light sheet. Light Sheet Microscopy Confocal...

CONDUCT AND DOCUMENT LONG-TERM OBSERVATIONS Light sheet technology by Leica Microsystems allows you to observe the development of interesting organisms over a longer span of time using low illumination and high speed. Watching developments in real time and 3D Imaging requires light, but too much light can damage your cells. Light sheet microscopy is the most gentle imaging method to date, as it reduces the overall photodamage from phototoxicity and bleaching. This automatically increases the viability of your specimen. Particularly researchers in developmental biology benefit from light...

FAST IMAGE ACQUISITION WITH EXCELLENT RESOLUTION Do you want to observe fast and periodic biological processes in three dimensions over an extended time period? Then the DLS module is the right choice. Discover the beauty of a beating zebrafish heart, for example. Track very fast periodic movements With the Leica TCS SP8 DLS you can choose between two cutting-edge sCMOS cameras for fast image acquisition with excellent resolution and high frame rates: The pco.edge sCMOS camera and the ORCA-flash 4.0 V2 by Hamamatsu are both fully integrated into the LAS X LightSheet Wizard. A new xytz scan...

PARTNERS IN SCIENCE – WE FOCUS ON YOUR NEEDS Time is too precious to spend on complicated experimental set ups. That is why we focus on intuitive and convenient system design. Workflow-oriented software design The LAS X microscope software guides users step by step through data recording and evaluation. The workflow-oriented design helps you to use the instrument more efficiently. A convenient calibration routine establishes the light sheet precisely. Dual-sided illumination of the sample comes by design: Each of the two opposing mirrors of the TwinFlect can be targeted by the scanner to...
