Laser scanning confocal microscope with spectral emission detection (Leica TCS SP8) on an inverted stand, fully motorized stage, fast z movement (Leica Super Z Galvo stage). Resonant scanner (8 Hz) for fast scan times and lower photo-toxicity or bleaching. Integrated deconvolution (Leica Lightning). Five internal detectors (two HyD high-sensitivity, three PMT), one transmitted light detector (PMT).
