Leica TCS SP8 X White Light Laser Confocal w/ DMI8 Inverted Phase Contrast Fluorescence with AFC Confocal

Leica TCS SP8 X White Light Laser Confocal Microscope with DMI8 Inverted Phase Contrast Fluorescence and AFC | Refurbished

The Leica TCS SP8 X is a white light laser (WLL) confocal microscope system designed for advanced fluorescence imaging, including live-cell imaging, super-resolution microscopy, and spectral unmixing. This configuration features the Leica SP8X confocal scan head, a motorized DMI8 inverted microscope with Adaptive Focus Control (AFC), and an NKT EXTREME Super-Continuum Laser delivering 470–670nm excitation tunable in 1nm steps.

Paired with 405nm and Argon lasers, and hybrid HyD detectors, this system is optimized for flexible multi-wavelength imaging, high-speed optical sectioning, and advanced quantitative analysis.
