Zeiss LSM 980 Laser Scanning Confocal Microscope with Airyscan 2, Axio Observer 7, Motorized Fluorescence & Live Cell Imaging System
The Zeiss LSM 980 with Airyscan 2 is a high-performance laser scanning confocal imaging platform designed for advanced fluorescence imaging, live-cell microscopy, spectral detection, and super-resolution applications. Configured on the Axio Observer 7 inverted research microscope platform, this motorized system combines Airyscan 2 super-resolution detection, spectral imaging, and high-sensitivity GaAsP detection, with optional incubation, autofocus, and motorized stage control for demanding life science and materials research workflows.
This configuration includes the LSM 980 scan head, Airyscan 2 detector with 4Y mode, Axio Observer 7 motorized inverted microscope, fluorescence illumination, workstation, and monitor. The system has been professionally decommissioned and packed by Zeiss and is ready for installation and service contract support. We can assist with arranging Zeiss service contract coverage if desired.
