Leica LMD7000 Laser Microdissection System
Specimen collection by gravity contact-free and contamination-free. Laser Microdissection (LMD) makes it possible to distinguish between relevant and non-relevant cells or tissues. It enables the researcher to obtain homogeneous, ultra-pure samples from heterogeneous starting material. Researcher can selectively and routinely analyze regions of interest down to single cells from all kinds of tissues, even living cells from cell culture, to obtain results that are relevant, reproducible, and specific.

Description:
The West Campus Imaging Core (WCIC) is providing access and training to a broad collection of shared instruments currently including a fleet of optical microscopes with three confocal systems, two wide-field systems, a light sheet system, laser-microdissection system, a cell-culture microscope, a stereomicroscope, an optical tweezer system, and an Atomic Force Microscope (AFM). The Core also maintains cell culture equipment such as a biosafety cabinet, incubators, a refrigerator, and microfuges and lab support areas for cell culture and sample preparation.
