The Leica STELLARIS 5 is an advanced automated inverse confocal laser scanning microscope. It offers the capability of simultaneously capturing three distinct fluorescent channels alongside a high-quality transmission bright-field channel. Featuring the cutting-edge TauSense technology, it provides real-time access to lifetime-based data, enriching your experiments with valuable insights. This system is particularly well-suited for examining fixed samples

This microscope offers enhanced axial resolution compared to traditional widefield microscopes. With the latest TauSense technology, it provides immediate access to lifetime-based data, augmenting the depth of information available for your experiments. Furthermore, in addition to capturing multi-color images in fixed samples, the microscope can fully automate the acquisition of large tile scans, all thanks to the LAS X Navigator.
