Leica TCS SP5 is a broadband confocal microscope that provides the full range of scan speeds at the a high resolution. With its SP detection (five channels simultaneously) and optional AOBS (Acousto Optical Bream Splitter), the Leica TCS SP5 delivers bright, noise-free images with minimal photo damage at high speed. The system is also the platform for the new Leica DM6000 CFS (Confocal Fixed Stage) for physiological and electrophysiological experiments and for the new super resolution Leica TCS STED confocal microscope.
