Leica STELLARIS 8 FALCON
    Description
The STELLARIS 8 FALCON is an advanced confocal microscope designed for biological research, providing multi-channel detection, flexible laser configurations, and enhanced sensitivity. It supports simultaneous multicolour imaging and fluorescence lifetime imaging (FLIM). Additionally, the integration of a far-red channel greatly improves its ability to detect and separate signals from fluorophores emitting in the red and far-red spectra.
