This Leica DMi8 Motorized Microscope is currently set up for Brightfield Transmitted with Phase Contrast and Fluorescence Reflective studies.
This Leica DMi8 Motorized Microscope is to be used for biological studies on slides and in petri dishes as well as well plates.
The motorized XY and Z axis can be controlled via software or SmartMove joystick for fine movements and focal points.
This system running the Leica LAS X software for detailed control, image acquisition, process, quantify and analysis.

License Modules (LAS-AF WPF)

Mark and Find - Allows for defining of multi-position of a large number of cells within one experiment.
Time Lapse - Allows for images to be taken without intervention at predefined intervals. Control of Duration and number of cycles is also available.
Multi Channel Acquisition - Allows up to 8 acquisition channels per experiment
Z-Control & Autofocus - Allows for acquisition of 3 dimensional data sets and one click autofocus of the sample.
Mosaic Plus - Allows for advanced acquisition at camera frame rates to produce high quality image edge merging.
Mobile Devices - Allows for connection of LAS to a mobile device for remote monitoring.
Environmental Control - Allows for control of environmental data (example: Temp, CO2, O2) from one interface.
Single Mosaic Fix Size - Allows for single image tile at each location within scan pattern
Multiple Mosaic Fix Size - Allows for multiple image tiles at each location within scan pattern
Single Selected Mosaic Fix Size - Allows for user selected single image tile at each location within scan pattern
Multiple Selected Mosaic Fix Size - Allows for user selected multiple image tiles at each location within scan pattern
Multiple Selected Mosaic Flexible Size - Allows for Mosaic Sizes only limited by available disk space
OME (Open Microscope Environment) DataExport - Allows for analysis of images outside of LAS.
Matrix Z - Drift Compensation - Allows for live specimen tracking of changes in Z positions to maintain a sharp image.
Adjustable Scanning Templates - Allows for configuration of experiment that defines the spatial structure.
Advanced Tile Scan - Allows the acquisition of overview images of the specimen with multiple channels in three dimensions.
Widefield Only - Allows for capture and analysis of widefield images.
