With high-performance optics, ergonomic design, and 5W LED illumination, the Leica DM IL LED is ideal for cell culture, micromanipulation, documentation of immunostained specimens, and routine live cell examinations.
The Leica DM IL LED features a comprehensive set of contrast methods to monitor your specimen the way you need. High-quality Phase contrast, excellent modulation contrast and brilliant fluorescence are just one fingertip away. Robust stability, plenty of space to work with tools, long working distances to accommodate large culture flasks and a stable illumination without heat make work at the microscope easy and convenient.
For special diagnostics requirements, the microscope is certified for in-vitro-diagnostics (IVD) including in-vitro-fertilization (IVF).
Contrasting methods
In addition to Phase Contrast and Brightfield illumination, the DM IL features unique Integrated Modulation Contrast (IMC) from Leica without the need for special objectives.
Available for 10x, 20x, 32x, and 40x magnification.
Fluorescence
Equipped with a 3 position fluorescence slider, the DMIL is capable of capturing brilliant fluorescence images. Confidently overlay multiple fluorescence images due to zero pixel shift technology.
Easily add another slider to image more fluorochromes.
Cell culture
With a long working distance the standard DM IL microscope allows you to conveniently monitor large cell culture flasks.
If your cell production reaches the next level, DM IL Cell Factory is the right choice. With a transmitted light arm of 480 mm, large multilayer vessels with up to 10 chambers can be checked—even using fluorescence.
